Alyssa Cowan at Church of Satire

Alyssa is a whimsical bro whose comedy ranges from witty observational humor to history based jokes, from one-liners to absurd hypothetical scenarios. She’s known to catch the attention of crowds with her cute delivery style, and she fuses her offbeat jokes with an impromptu ad lib style that effectively engages audiences. In 2013, Alyssa was voted RAW Performance Artist of the Year in her hometown of Reno, NV. In addition to touring nationally, she's an alumna of the Asheville Comedy Festival (formerly Laugh Your Asheville Off), the Women in Comedy Festival in Boston, Artscape in Baltimore, and the Bentzen Ball in Washington, DC, among others. Additionally, Alyssa hosts a weekly, 10 minute podcast called Letter Talk, where she writes heartfelt comedic letters to businesses, public figures, strangers and friends.
