Bend Comedy Presents:
– EMMA ARNOLD –
Emma Arnold is America’s fiercest sweetheart. Equal parts outrageous and thoughtful, her standup comedy is engaging, honest, and comes from the heart. In addition to being a successful touring comedian, Emma is the cofounder and artistic director of the 208 Comedyfest, the codirector of Comedyfort (part of the Treefort Festival), as well as a mother of three and third generation beekeeper. She was named Jackie and Laurie’s “Comic of the Week” in 2018, and needs literally nothing else from life after that. Her self-released comedy special, “Yes, Please”, is available now and you should watch it, it’s fun. When not touring, Emma lives in Idaho, where she keeps kids and bees with varying degrees of success.
– AMANDA LYNN DEAL –
