Laughing Redhead Studio is the studio of t.r. logan, (aka Teresa Roberts Logan). She is a standup comic (Evening at the Improv, Thou Shalt Laugh, Bananas, and Comedy Angels) as well as Reuben-Award-nominated cartoonist.
Here's the long version:
Teresa has been writing humor and performing comedy since she was a teenager in Memphis, and has been drawing pretty much since birth. She has an edgy, odd-but-fun, original style and a friendly stage presence which appeals to people of all backgrounds.
Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, home of Elvis and the best BBQ in the world, she did interesting freelance jobs such as doing storyboards for music videos (ZZ Top) and working on the now-cult-classic zombie movie, "I Was a Zombie for the FBI," for which she provided some art direction, as well as the pig guts for the really grody scenes.
During this highly formative time, Teresa also drew comics and kept copious notes of hilarious things which floated through her mind.
Soon she was hired to do that for a living. Teresa moved to Kansas City to work as an artist and writer for Hallmark Cards, where she got to draw, write, and argue with locals about who has the best BBQ, Memphis or Kansas City. She was encouraged by the guys in Shoebox to try standup . . .
Mere minutes later, she went to an open mic night at a local comedy club in Kansas City . . . which changed her life. In a good way. She made the tough decision to leave Hallmark and hit the road, working the comedy club and one-nighter circuits, while continuing to freelance for Hallmark and other gift industry companies.
She lived in beautiful Colorado for 20 years (where, the one time she went downhill skiing, she had to be rescued), and now makes her home in beautiful Virginia (at sea level) with her husband Gary (the actor and Shakespeare savant) and her son Andrew (who loves kayaking, longboarding, and playing his guitar).
She recently had a book of her cartoons published by Andrews McMeel Publishing: "The Older I Get, The Less I Care," which reflects her highly evolved life philosophy.
Rich Jeni called her "the Meryl Streep of comedy". The Denver Post calls her "effortlessly funny". "Hilarious" is the word most often used by her audience and in client reviews.
HBO's "Comic Relief", A&E's "Comedy on the Road" and "Evening at the Improv", the hit TV series "Bananas", and Warner Brothers' hit DVD release "Thou Shalt Laugh", Gospel Music Channel's "Comedy Quickies", and the upcoming comedy DVD release "Comedy Angels", as well as Zanies Chicago, Catch A Rising Star Las Vegas, and Comedy Works Denver are just naming a few of Teresa's comedy appearances! She has opened for Ellen DeGeneres, Drew Carey, Paula Poundstone, Dana Carvey, Kevin Nealon, and Jerry Seinfeld, among others!
"OUT-OF-THE-BOX, EDGY, HILARIOUS, HONEST, REFRESHING" are some of the words used to describe the comedy of Teresa Roberts Logan. If you are looking for prissy, predictable, safe, sweet, traditional, run-of-the-mill, coiffed-and-manicured comedy, then you need to go somewhere else. If you want clean, FUNNY comedy with no fear, lots of truth, edge, attitude, and great audience interaction, then give us a call:
