Caitlin Reese

Caitlin Reese is a Brooklyn based comedian and writer not pulling any punches about her mental health, disabilities or chronic gay condition. She once published and sold out a comedy zine through Tower Records by accident. Notably, Caitlin was a Finalist on Amazon Prime's Comics Watching Comics where a couch of judgy judges laughed really hard at her jokes and couldn't come up with anything but nice things to say. She also was a Finalist at Gotham Comedy Club's Ladies of Laughter Competition as the WILD CARD selection. She was featured on the Best of Helium Comedy Records Volume 2. She regularly performs at New York Comedy Club and has been in a million festivals including the HBO Women in Comedy Fest. She once opened for Kevin McDonald from Kids in the Hall, and he followed her back stage to compliment her performance while he was supposed to be on stage. In her former life she was a social worker and ran a rape crisis center until they fired her after a video circulated of her stand up. The premise of the joke was about feeling terrible for unsubscribing to amber alerts. Stand up jokes are not meant to be told in board rooms. She also used to do undercover animal rights investigations, which was likely due to the guilt of putting her childhood cat in bonnets.
