As they say in France:
Who The Fuck is this bitch?
Tessa Skara is a comedian, musician, actor, and screenwriter, originally from British Columbia, Canada, and currently based in Brooklyn.
Tessa is a nonbinary lesbian (they/she) who’s been a mainstay of the NYC alt-stand-up comedy scene for years. Named “The Goddess of Confessional Comedy Rock” by Bedford and Bowery, Tessa has performed their unique blend of stand-up and music all over New York City at venues like Joe’s Pub, Carolines on Broadway, The Bell House, Littlefield, Ars Nova, Union Hall, New York Comedy Club, The Duplex, The Brooklyn Comedy Festival, The New York Comedy Festival and Every Shitty Gay Bar In Brooklyn. Previously, Tessa was a part of the musical sketch group Pop Roulette, with whom they were named one of Comedy Central's Comics to Watch, performed at sketch festivals around North America, and whose musical "Amazing Earth" ran for a year at UCBT Chelsea and UCBT LA. As an actor, you can see Tessa on Crashing, The Detour, High Maintenance, Little America, and playing multiple roles on the Paramount+ show The Harper House. Tessa took part in the 2020 CBS Comedy Showcase in Los Angeles and is currently developing their own animated tv show with Bento Box Entertainment (and yes, it will have music). Tessa is writing this right now, which is…awkward.
