If scientists could figure out how to bottle the energy of comedian Poppy Champlin, we could end our dependence on fossil fuels immediately.
Poppy erupts onto the stage
without fanfare, but with enough energy to take
down the house in her first minute of comedy.
Rapid fire jokes interspersed with comedic songs
keep her audiences laughing and coming back. When a
comedian invites the general public to comment during the show, the potential for disaster is there.
But Champlin handles "Chatty Cathy's" and "Negative
Nancy's" with charm and quick wit.
Her stand-up pedigree is flawless;
from VH-1, to A&E, Oprah Winfrey and Joan
Rivers to her newest gig on Atlantis cruises
she has earned a reputation of being one of the
fastest witted female comediennes on either coast.
Graduating
from The University of Rhode Island with a BFA
in theatre, Poppy set out for Chicago where she
attended the famed Second City Comedy Troupe.
She refined her chops in Chicago opening for
such comics as Ray Ramano, Denis Leary,
Bill Maher, Bill Hicks and Rosie O’Donnell.
When
Poppy hit tinsel town, she continued to study
acting at the Larry Moss studios and has since
put up her critically acclaimed One Woman Show, “A
Chocolate Sandwich.”
She was a staff writer on FOX’s Show Me
The Funny.
Poppy currently can be seen performing
her comedy, in the new HBO Documentary “All
Aboard Rosie’s Family Vacation” as
well as, hosting her own popular comedy show; “Cocktails
and Comedy” at the infamous GirlBar in
West Hollywood.
Ever increasing her visibility, she is a regular
performer in Provincetown, at the Dinah Shore
Weekend, and the Chicago Sun Times called her "Blisteringly
Funny" in her appearance at the closing
ceremonies of the Gay Games.
Poppy tackles tough subjects
with ease. In this comedienne’s hands we
can laugh at life’s most formidable perils...
and laughter that ravages fear is the best kind
of all.
