Lisa Rimmert is that rare find: a standup comedian with an optimistic streak.

She loves people (and dogs!) — and the feeling’s mutual.

A confident storyteller, Lisa knows her craft like the back of a bar napkin. She easily charms audiences with well-honed yet natural stories, punchlines, and snarky asides.

Lisa has performed with giants like Bobcat Goldthwait, TJ Miller, Steve Hofstetter, and Lisa Ann Walter. Her growing roster of festivals includes the Ha Ha Harvest Comedy Festival in Portland (2022, 2023); the Winter Park Comedy Festival (2023); and the Burbank Comedy Festival, (2024) at which she made the list for “Best of the Fest.”

Lisa’s playful style ranges from the silly to the subversive. Her comedy skews clean as she shares her lighthearted views on married life, being child-free, loving animals, and (note the Oxford comma) proper grammar. Expect nothing less from this award-winning author of Stay: My Forever Friendship with an Aging Dog.

  • “Lisa is a wry and clever joke writer who tackles sensitive topics with subversive subtlety.”

    Greg Sharp
    The Comedy Experiment

  • “Lisa’s charming nature lures a crowd into a sense of family fun comedy, only to be cut by her sharp wit. Fueled by a vagabond-ish lifestyle, her comedy is entirely relatable whilst being outstandingly unique.”

    Louis D. Michael

  • “Lisa’s sharp wit is matched by her ability to remain relatable, yet silly at the same time. You’ll be quoting her long after she’s left the stage.”
