Katie Novotny

Katie Novotny has the self-depreciating humor of a Midwestern tomboy. She doesn't shy away from her Catholic upbringing, her gyno appointments, her anxiety and depression, and her love of night snacking. But she is afraid to talk about sex. Mainly cause she rarely has it. As a stand up, she’s been a finalist in Amsterdamn’s Boom Chicago Comedy festival, HBO’s Women in Comedy Festival, San Diego Comedy Festival, and Ladies of Laughter Festival. Before going solo on stage, she trained at Second City and iO in improv and sketch comedy, she produced two award-winning webseries, and her comedy pilot scripts have landed her as a finalist in Slamdance and Screencraft. Most notably she’s known for plotting ways to take advantage of arthritis in her knees in hopes to be an influencer for Bengay.
