Chris Kelly
Chris Kelly is currently a staff writer for Funny or Die and was previously a writer and director for The Onion News Network in New York, which won the 2009 Peabody Award.
He was also the head writer for Matt Besser's Comedy Central special "This Show Will Get You High" in 2010.
At UCB in New York City, Chris wrote, directed and starred in a dark sketch play called "OH MY GOD, I HEARD YOU'RE DYING!" and was on various Maude Teams as both a writer and actor, including STONE COLD FOX, 27 KIDNEYS and THUNDER GULCH. Chris also directed numerous shows there, including "SO I LIKE SUPERMAN" and "2PAC: THE MUSICAL." He has also been an occasional monologist at ASSSSCAT in both New York and LA.
Chris is also a sketch teacher at UCB, and seeing as he is fairly new to LA, is looking to do more fun shows and meet more fun people. Won't you be in touch?
But wait, there's more. He also keeps a revelatory and stunning blog, which can be found at www.chriskelly.tumblr.com. But you already knew that, as it is open in another tab on your browser right now.
Finally, Chris loves his mother and hates high-fives.
