Submitted by the Event Organizer
Best known for her hit bathroom graffiti musical The Writing on the Stall, Caitlin Cook returns with The Hero We (Sort Of) Need — a brand-new comedy hour jam-packed with new songs, hilarious stories, and projected visuals. Built around her childhood theory that everyone has a superpower, the show asks what happens when, in a world of eight billion people, your special gift turns out to be comically specific.
Caitlin Cook is a LA-born, NYC-based, Oxford-educated, hyphen-addicted comedian, musician, and artist. Her hit one-woman bathroom graffiti musical The Writing on the Stall was a New York Times Critic’s Pick and sold out several Off-Broadway runs, the Edinburgh Fringe, and national and international tours. Its accompanying studio album has hit over 50M streams across all platforms. She has two other successful musical comedy albums: Zinger-Songwriter, which she recorded at 12 different venues while on tour across the US and UK, and Betty Pitch, which she recorded after writing 250 songs a day during the pandemic. A fierce champion of mixed media and genre-bending works of art, Cook has carved out a space for herself smack-dab in the center of the Venn diagram between comedy, music, and theater. Aside from her work as a performer, she served as a creative consultant for Sean Patton’s Number One on Peacock, as the producer for Gabe Mollica’s hit show Solo that was featured on This American Life, and as the director of A.J. Holmes’ critically-acclaimed Yeah, But Not Right Now. She is one-half of the musical comedy duo 2/3rds of a Threesome.
