Too Opinionated Interview: Katelyn McCulloch

2025 marks a breakthrough year for Canadian comedy powerhouse Katelyn McCulloch, whose fearless approach to female-driven comedy has already earned her two Canadian Screen Award nominations and international acclaim. Now, she's capping it off with two major milestones: the highly anticipated season two premiere of her Bell Fibe TV1 hit Everybody's Meg on November 13th, and the return of Shenanigans on November 27th in Halifax at the Cineplex Park Lane (5657 Spring Garden Rd); a bold, joy-filled celebration of funny, feel-good, and female-driven film and television. With Everybody's Meg, the Halifax-born creator has struck a rare chord with audiences: a comedy that's sharp, heartfelt, and unafraid to lean into the messy, awkward truths of millennial life. As the founder of Hey Old Friend Productions, Katelyn has made it her mission to amplify women in comedy on and off stage. That mission comes to life with Shenanigans, the one-of-a-kind comedy showcase and screening series she launched in 2024. Unlike traditional festivals, Shenanigans is more than a screening, it's a community celebration of female-driven comedy, wrapped in glamour, joy, and connection. On screen, her credits include Law & Order Toronto, Pretty Hard Cases, Hudson & Rex, Roll With It, Avocado Toast, and leading roles in films such as Meet the Killer Parents, Bystanders, and many more. Looking ahead, Katelyn is developing multiple half-hour comedy series, including one with Fiasco Global Media, preparing her first feature film, and making a return to the stage in 2026 as Margaret Cavendish in MAD MADGE at Neptune Theatre.
