Comedian Kathleen Madigan has spent over three decades mastering the art of stand-up, and her momentum shows no signs of slowing. Currently touring with her all-new show Boxed Wine & Tiny Banjos, she performs up to 250 nights a year, filling marquee theaters nationwide with sold-out crowds.
A veteran of over 40 late-night talk show appearances, Madigan has released multiple acclaimed specials on Netflix, HBO, and Comedy Central. Her fifth special, Bothering Jesus, became the highest-selling and most-streamed comedy album since 2014. Her sixth, Hunting Bigfoot, premiered globally in 2023 as an Amazon Original, showcasing her signature blend of sharp wit and grounded storytelling.
She’s been featured on Jerry Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and hosts her own hit podcast, Madigan’s Pubcast, which has amassed over 4 million downloads. Internationally, Madigan has performed in Ireland, England, Australia, and Hong Kong, and has appeared in seven Montreal Gala Shows at the Just For Laughs Festival.
Critics and fellow comedians alike rave about her skill. The Chicago Tribune praised her for “perfecting the art of crafting a perfect joke,” while Ron White called her “one of the best comics, period.”
Madigan’s accolades include the American Comedy Award and the Phyllis Diller Award for Best Female Comedian. She’s also written and produced for Lewis Black’s Root of All Evil and completed multiple USO tours entertaining troops overseas.
