Vulnerability in Improv & Sketch Comedy w/ Kay Mollica

Michele (@michelebacicomedy) talks about the riots on the US Capitol and the hypocrisy behind it. She’s also seeing a new therapist soon!

This week’s guest is Kay Mollica (@quemollica), a Brooklyn based comedian and voice over artist. Kay talks about going to art school and the ladies bond over going to New York state colleges. Kay tells us that she loves to gab, and that’s why therapy works so well for her.

Kay shares that she wanted to get into comedy since she was a teenager. She talks about writing for Reductress, embracing the cheesiness of improv, and how her coach called her out for never choosing to play vulnerable characters. She’s currently directing Moxie, a virtual sketch lab, which is a space for women, trans, and non-binary people to write comedy. Kay and Michele discuss the “crazy ex-girlfriend” stereotype.

Kay tells us why she’s obsessed with Nate: A One Man Show by Natalie Palamides and that she’s been watching intuitive eating videos on Tik Tok lately.

Also, the comic who has a bit about free printing who Michele references is Sheng Wang @shengwangtime.
