A native of extremely rural Maryland, Jacquetta Szathmari escaped at the tender age of 13 to a Delaware boarding school. In the face of crew races and bold Laura Ashley floral prints, she developed a unique comic style. She has spent the past decades collecting certifications, traveling the world, spreading comedy and her finances very thin. She has performed and hosted in numerous local clubs including Broadway Comedy Club, Standup New York, Mo’ Pitkins, Underground Lounge, New York Comedy Club, Galapagos Artspace, The Monkey Room, Village Lantern, Gotham Comedy Club, Laugh Lounge, Comix and the Laugh Factory. She also produces comedy shows around the 5 boroughs. Her act is a witty, acerbic and candid commentary on races relations, class relations and the failures of modern society.

Ms. Szathmari has been a finalist in National Geographic’s Comedy of Travel Contest, appeared in the NYC Underground Comedy Festival and was a Project Breakout Finalist. She has been published on a leading pharmaceutical company’s website, has written for the daily METRO and edits copy for a major Wall St website.

She holds a degree from Sarah Lawrence College in Medieval Studies and Theatre (Everyman Plays anyone…) and has studied comedy at Upright Citizen’s Brigade and the American Comedy Institute. She is currently studying with screenwriting guru DB Gilles while completing her first feature length script. When not on stage she teaches at The New School University and is a new teacher mentor.
