Sequined cabaret narcissist-comedy with a piano and zero shame
Catherine Cohen is what happens when a cabaret singer, a theater kid, and someone who has read one too many self-help books all decide to become one glittery, oversharing comedian. She sits at a keyboard in a sequined dress, sings little songs about being hot and sad and desperate for validation, and somehow makes the most narcissistic thoughts you've ever had feel like a group therapy session with a disco ball.
What makes Cat so fun is that she's not hiding behind irony — she's fully committed to the bit that she is both a mess and a star, often in the same sentence. Her jokes about dating apps, ring lights, and wanting everyone to think she's gorgeous land because she says the quiet, cringey, very-online part out loud before you even knew you were thinking it.
If you've ever wanted to laugh-cry at a cabaret show while also feeling personally attacked, Catherine Cohen is exactly your kind of chaotic, campy therapy.
