“As a streetwise Boston native, devoted wife, working mother of two, storyteller and stand-up comic, Laura Severse brings her hard-working, heartfelt approach to life to stages across the country. Laura finds the humor in everything from climbing the corporate ladder to the trials and tribulations of raising two young children in the heart of a changing city in the midst of a changing world. Audiences have no choice but to be swept up in the joy, pathos and sheet excitement of a city kid who's seen it all and can't wait for more. Laura's attitude is equal parts bold, brash, kind, and gentle, but always gut-wrenchingly funny. She is a true Bostonian with a killer accent and her comedy reflects her true nature: honest and hilarious.
