PERFORMERS

Headliner: Katie-Ellen Humphries

Recently named “Best Comedian” in the Georgia Straight’s Best of Vancouver 2024, and “Canada’s Katherine Hepburn in Adidas” by 800 Pound Gorilla, the record label that produced their hit comedy album Ladyfinger, Katie-Ellen Humphries is an act you don’t want to miss. Katie-Ellen’s artful delivery, surprising imagination and unique sensibility (that falls somewhere between the library and the locker-room) has made them a favourite of audiences across Canada and the U.S., including regular appearances on CBC Radio’s The Debaters where they have worked as a writer and Associate Producer. Television appearances include three seasons on the OUT-TV comedy talk show Morgan Brayton & Other People and nationally televised standup sets on CTV, CBC and APTN plus she’s been featured on major comedy festival lineups such as San Fransico Sketchfest and JFL Vancouver. Katie-Ellen is also a 3-time Canadian National Open Water 5k Swimming Champion. That’s unrelated to comedy, but it explains the shoulders.
