Three comedians take the stage, followed by engaging sessions with licensed mental health therapist and stand-up comedian, Aimee LeCours, LMHC. Together, they'll unravel the mysteries behind the humor, exploring the age-old question, “Why are you like this?” Prepare for an evening of insightful humor and spontaneous revelations, blending stand-up comedy and improvised comedian "group therapy" with the expertise of a mental health professional. It's not just a show; it's Psych! - Where comedy gets a dose of therapy.

Emily Flake makes cartoons for The New Yorker, MAD Magazine, and the New Statesman. She has a weekly strip called Lulu Eightball that carried the jokes that are too vulgar for grown-up publications and too racy for MAD, back when alt-weeklies were strong and we were young. She also creates a bi-weekly cartoon for The Nib, usually about whatever the political or cultural shitstorm du jour is. Emily performs a hybrid of cartoons and stand-up wherein she shows cartoons via the magic of PowerPoint and then tells funny stories. She has performed this at Union Hall, the Bell House, QED Astoria, UCBEast, and a bunch of other places from the fancy to the hopelessly vile. She is also the proprietress of St. Nell’s Humor Writing Residency for Ladies in Williamsport, PA.
