Jamie Shriner brings a kind of comedy you do not get every night: sharp standup built around original songs, musical precision, and the particular thrill of watching a comic who can land a joke, a lyric, and an emotional left turn in the same breath. Their act is funny, intimate, theatrical, and strange in exactly the right proportions.
Safe Words Queer Comedy Showcase returns to the Eagle for another night of queer comedy, community, and joyful chaos. Come out for a lineup built for loud laughs, sharp perspectives, and a room that knows how to hold both a killer joke and a little bit of tenderness.
Jamie Shriner
Queer · Bisexual · Pansexual · They/Them
Jamie Shriner is what would happen if Bo Burnham and Jenna Marbles were cryogenically frozen together in a pair of cat lady glasses. A former theatre kid, current queer & hard of hearing divorcé, Jamie uses humorous original songs to discuss her struggles with dating, body image, womanhood, and being queer in Indiana where she grew up. Jamie was named Best of the Fest at Kenan Thompson's Road To New York, Big Pine Comedy Festival, Laughs After Dark Comedy Festival and is a regular feature at Zanies and Laugh Factory Chicago. The host and producer of Chicago Underground Comedy has opened for the likes of Beth Stelling, Randy Feltface, and Chrissy Chlapecka, and is a former Features Contributor for The Onion. Their comedy specials, Corn Baby, Good Grief, and The Nightmare Factory are available to stream on YouTube, Spotify, iTunes, and more.
