Internationally touring comedian and writer Lisa Curry brings her razor-sharp wit and raw honesty to her first full-length comedy special, Emotionally Edging.
Known for her bold storytelling and fearless ability to turn discomfort into laughter, Curry delivers an hour of stand-up that is as personal as it is punch-drunk funny. In Emotionally Edging, Lisa takes audiences on a rollercoaster of vulnerability and hilarity, exploring the chaos of modern life, relationships, and the emotional tightrope we all walk daily. With her signature mix of dark humor, brutal honesty, and sharp cultural observations, she proves that sometimes the only way to process life’s absurdities is to laugh right in their face.
Filmed in front of a live audience and produced by Jake Kroeger, the special captures Curry at her most unfiltered, navigating the fragile line between breakdown and breakthrough.
