Emily Catalano brings her smart, dry, and quietly devastating stand-up to Gorton for an evening of comedy that sneaks up on you – then lands twice as hard. A Los Angeles–based comedian, Emily made her late-night stand-up debut on CONAN and has steadily built a devoted following through viral clips that capture her unmistakable voice and perfectly unhurried delivery.

Emily’s comedy lives in the details. With a slow pace that invites you to lean in, she transforms everyday observations into sharp, unexpected punchlines that feel both deeply relatable and completely original. Her jokes don’t rush for laughs – they let the humor simmer, then surprise you when you least expect it. That thoughtful approach has earned her widespread attention, including recognition from Time Out LA, which named her a “Comic to Watch,” and praise from Vulture, who noted, “They hit especially hard because they surprise you twice.”

This show is for mature audiences.
