Karen Morgan’s latest comedy album, Shiny Happy People Laughing (named with special permission from REM), was recorded last fall in her home town of Athens, Georgia. She now brings this nostalgic and hilarious comedy material live to Gorton! Audiences are loving her hysterical trip back to a time when rocks were pets, carpets were shag, and bike seats were bananas. Anyone will love this clean comedy show, but especially if you are of a certain age who grew up playing outside without bike helmets, adult supervision, or bottled water-and still managed to survive! Grab your partner or your friends and come join us for a night of hilarity!
Karen has been performing clean standup comedy in theaters and performing arts centers for almost two decades. She entertains audiences nationwide with her relatable observations of family and everyday life. Her funny, sentimental stories of growing up in the 1970s & 80s are a particularly big hit with Gen Xers, Gen Jonesers and Baby Boomers. She has 2 Dry Bar Comedy Specials: Go Dawgs (with millions of views on Facebook &YouTube) and Rub Some Dirt On It (Top 10 List of 2023). She has been featured in The Washington Post, HuffPost and The Insider. Her credits also include Sirius XM Radio, Gotham Comedy Live and Nickelodeon Television. Karen lives in Cumberland, Maine, but was born and raised in Athens, Georgia. She loves to travel for comedy shows, especially if there is a Waffle House along the way.
