Directed by Jason Katz inside of The Comedy Cellar in New York City, Carmen Lynch latest comedy special Queef Week sees the comedy star joke about the topics she couldn’t discuss on her many late-night TV appearances, including minorities, body size, religion, mental health, and a few disorders she “might have.”

She has performed for the troops in Iraq and Kuwait and continues to tour in Spanish-speaking countries doing stand-up in Spanish. In 2017, Lynch performed a sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with her show “Lynched.” She has also appeared at Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, Bumbershoot, Moontower Comedy Festival and Laughing Skull Comedy Festival. When Lynch is not on the road she can usually be found at The Comedy Cellar in New York City. Her comedy CD “Dance Like You Don’t Need the Money” was named “Comedy Album of the Year” by Sirius XM in 2017.
The Comedy Cellar: Founded in 1981 by Bill Grundfest, the Comedy Cellar emerged when New York’s comedy boom had begun but not yet reached downtown. It took years of up-and-coming comics like Ray Romano, Chris Rock, Louis CK, and Jon Stewart growing their material there, getting big, and coming home to give the Cellar the cachet it has today – being immortalized in the opening credits of Louie is just a tiny part of its modern legacy.
