As part of the promotion for her latest Netflix comedy special Catherine Cohen: The Twist…? She’s Gorgeous comedian Catherine Cohen answers your burning questions – what does she like to eat before a show? What’s the strangest place she’s done a comedy show? What’s her astrology sign? What’s her favorite karaoke song.
She then moved to New York City to perform stand-up and sketch comedy, taking classes at the Upright Citizens Brigade and working at the Peoples Improv Theater. Cohen has received positive critical reception for performing comedy cabaret, and was named on “comedians to watch” lists by Vulture and Time Out in 2018. She has a monthly show at Joe’s Pub called The Twist…? She’s Gorgeous, which includes singing and accompaniment, and a weekly show called Cabernet Cabaret at Club Cumming. Both shows are performed with her frequent collaborator, Henry Koperski, who accompanies her on the piano. Her performances were described by Madeleine Aggeler of The Cut as “a spinning, glittery, Technicolor explosion”. She also co-hosts a monthly comedy show called It’s a Guy Thing with Patti Harrison and Mitra Jouhari.
As an actress, Cohen has appeared on comedy series such as High Maintenance, Broad City, Search Party, and What We Do in the Shadows. She performed an original comedic song called “Look At Me” on Late Night with Seth Meyers in July 2019. Her first Netflix comedy special also called The Twist…? She’s Gorgeous, was released in March 2022.
