Zoe Johnson — comedian and comedy writer (who also works in marketing)

Hey! My name is Zoe.*

I'm a comedian and comedy writer based in Brooklyn, NY. I also work in marketing (refer to LinkedIn for details), but I imagine that's not why you're here. 

I perform stand-up comedy around New York City and write sketches for Gorgeous Stank, a Maude team with Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB). 

Speaking of UCB, I've trained with them as well as Asylum, The People's Improv Theater, Squirrel Theater, The Pack Theater, and Brooklyn Comedy Collective.**

I've written a few half-hour comedy pilots (one of them was named a quarterfinalist in the 2021 BlueCat Pilot Competition) and was recently a 2023 finalist for (1) Disney's General Entertainment Writing Program and (2) Amy Aniobi's Tribe Writers Program. 

Let me know if you'd like to read anything I've written. I'd also be happy to perform at your show or talk to you about what I'm what I'm watching, reading, listening to, or eating.

No worries, if not! 😀

Thank you for reading and have a great day!

*Because millions of people are asking, I feel compelled to tell you that "Zoe" is pronounced like Saldana or Kravitz and not like "Joe" with a Z. Please know, I will not correct you either way. That is not my personality.

**Hopefully you read this and thought: "wow, she really loves comedy and what's more? She cares about her career and honing her craft!" Alternatively, if you thought, "weird flex, but ok..." I am devastated, but ultimately, I understand.
