About your Host, Iris Benson

Iris Benson has accomplished nothing. She is a comedian because no other profession will have her including drug dealing and prostitution. She’s garnered such praise as “ Bleak and honest ”, “pleasantly dark” and “wonderfully weird” by no one that you’ve heard of and as “least likeable”, “angry” and “misanthropic” by Glenn Sumi of Now Toronto Magazine. 

She’s performed all over North America, hitting festivals such as the Los Angeles Scripted Comedy Festival, The Laughing Devil Comedy Festival, The She-Devil Comedy Festival, Trail by Laughter  in Indianapolis and Toronto’s She-Dot festival and The Cape Fear Comedy Festival in Wilmington, North Carolina.
