From navigating the dynamics of bringer shows to evolving her material and embracing her authentic comedic style as she reflects on the challenges and triumphs of her comedy career, Christine Little.

from The Stein Time Show

Christine Little's journey into comedy is as eclectic as her upbringing. Hailing from Indiana, she navigated through familial turmoil and frequent relocations due to evictions, eventually settling in the affluent town of Carmel. The stark socioeconomic contrasts she experienced became a wellspring of comedic material. Her early days in stand-up, about her first class with Greg Dean at Haunted Studios in 1988. Despite starting at 19, she took intermittent breaks, always returning to Greg's showcases. From performing at bowling alley mics to headlining at the Comedy Store, Christine's journey through the comedy scene was gradual, emphasizing the importance of networking and gaining stage time. ⁣ As she evolved as a comedian, Christine grappled with imposter syndrome and the dynamics of bringer shows. However, a pivotal moment led her to decline future bringer show invitations and focus on other opportunities. Her material, often centered around her biracial identity and life experiences, evolved over time, reflecting her genuine comedic style. ⁣ Christine's comedic journey also delves into the unique dynamics of comedian friendships and the evolving landscape of comedy. With plans to record an album and upcoming shows at the West Side Comedy Theater in Santa Monica, Christine's comedic endeavors continue to flourish.
