Mae Planert & Laura Merli do their half hour specials as part of NY Comedy Festival 2024!
Mae Planert is Massachusetts born, Manhattan based stand-up comedian, writer, and podcaster. Mae's humor centers on calling out hypocrisy and double standards. The only thing that she hates more than a hypocrite is herself. She's also very pregnant (8.5 months?), lol.
Laura Merli delivers comedy that’s delightfully unpredictable, blending dark humor with a playful twist on personal stories and the oddities of human relationships. With her signature charm and a bold, no-holds-barred style, Laura turns life’s chaos into laugh-out-loud gold. Laura's Instagram.
