VDC #221 Katie Yoner

Today we have one of the Edmonton comedy scenes brightest rising stars, and she is one cool rat let me tell ya! It was fascinating to hear the experience of starting comedy from the lens of someone who has done a lot of performing in other arenas beforehand.  It's nice to know that the sheer terror of doing stand up does not fade with experience in other stagecrafts!  Katie is currently running an amazing show called The Rat Academy and it has already made major waves at the Edmonton and Vancouver Fringe festivals (among many others!) and is going all the way to Orlando next year!  Take a listen to hear more about what this show is all about and what makes it so special and then grab your tickets asap!  Katie has the most unique bright energy and it is a joy to take in whether its on the theatre stage or in a comedy club and you are doing yourself a disservice every day you go without seeing her!

Follow Katie at @katie_yoner_ as well as her show @the_rat_academy now!

And come see my show at @themoonyeg this Thursday at 8pm it's going to be extra wild!
