Comedy & Improv
Check out what I've been working on!
Comedy & Improv
I Do Comedy.
Intentionally.
Tristan performs original comedy and improv at festivals throughout the United States and New Zealand, combining sharp writing, character-driven comedy, and the occasional terrible idea. Tris can be found performing with their improv Taking Suggestions in Chicago & is currently in the Conservatory program at Second City.
Tristan's material explores mental health, identity, religion, politics, and social issues through stand-up, characters, and impressions. The goal is simple: thoughtful comedy that never forgets to be funny.
