    Actor, Comic, Musician ...

     

    Jen Liv is an actor, comic, singer, writer and improviser...who also plays 16 instruments!

     

    You can see Jen's unique brand of stand up comedy all over Los Angeles at the Hollywood Improv, The Comedy Store, Flappers, HaHa Comedy Club, The Comedy Chateau and more. She was voted "Best of Fest" at the Burbank Comedy Festival in 2022.  She loves to bring her accordion on stage, and sometimes she even brings a ukulele and does a completely improvised song at the end of the show, shouting out each comic.

     

    You may recognize Jen from her myriad of National Commercials, or from her days performing on the Upright Citizen's Brigade Musical Mess Hall Team, Power Play.

     

    Jen is a producer. She loves putting together stand up, musical comedy, and one woman shows. She's produced in both New York and LA, and she has a monthly variety comedy show in Hollywood called "Let's Get Wild"

     

    During her time in NYC she performed in the Nat'l tour of the Little Mermaid, and off Broadway with legends Tovah Feldshuh and Stephen Spinella. She has performed her comedy and music all over Manhattan at Joe's Pub, 54 Below, Rockwood Musical Hall, the Laurie Beechman, and many more.

     

    Jen loves musical improv, and she loves cabaret. So she decided to combine them to perform a fully improvised one woman cabaret with a live musicians improvising along with her ( Sam Johnides on Piano and Zach Pyke on Bass). 

     

    She wrote, produced, and starred in the video, 1-900 SPARKLE which was featured on Funny or Die.
