Hey, I'm Carla!
Los Angeles, California
In the bio of a 3rd grade book report, Carla Lee announced that she wanted to be a "Comedy Clown" and has been trying to make you laugh ever since. Throughout her youth, she seized every opportunity to act and sing in community plays and musicals and shot her own sketch comedy shows around her house and neighborhood. As an "adult," she is the Creator and Executive Producer of the sketch comedy series NICE TAN, and a writer and actor for the San Francisco sketch comedy troupe Killing My Lobster. You may also recognize her from the occasional advertisement, or as a performer/facilitator at corporate events throughout the SF Bay Area. She thrives on creating new, compelling personalities to share with the world and bringing fresh energy and perspective to classic characters. Her bucket list show is The Pirates of Penzance, and she knows every word to the "Major-General's Song."
