Katie Boyle is an Irish comedian living in New York City. She performed as a “New Face” in 2023 at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal, and was featured in NY Funniest showcase and New York Comedy Festival in 2022. Katie’s debut album and special, I’ll Do It Myself, was released through Pinch Records in the summer of 2023. The album hit #1 on iTunes comedy charts and is currently available to stream on all major platforms. She currently hosts The Shift podcast, on which she and her guests discuss sex and dating from an Irish perspective. She is currently touring her new hour-long show, Terapy.
Founded in 2007, the Harvard College Stand-Up Comic Society (“Harvard College SUCS”) has been entertaining audiences in Sanders Theatre, Queens Head Pub, the Science Center, Fong Auditorium, the Gotham Comedy Club, and one random Rotary Club ever since. During their time with the Society, members have been seen at Improv Boston, the Comedy Studio, the Laugh Factory, and Last Comic Standing, and alumni have gone on to appear on Late Night, America's Got Talent, Last Comic Standing, the Boston Comedy Festival, and many other festivals and showcases. They've also been called a "ragtag band of misfits" by Cosmopolitan Magazine.
