The Greek Goddess of comedy, Ellen Karis, satirizes the Greek-American community in her latest TV production, “Greek Chicks Rule”. Ellen entertains audiences throughout the U.S. and Canada as one of the very few Greek female stand-up comedians performing today.
Her rants about being raised in New York City as a traditional Greek-American woman in a modern world spark non-stop laughter. From your Papou to your Koumbara, Ellen delivers comedy that everyone can relate to.
Ellen describes herself and her journey as “off the beaten path” – she grew up in New York City where she attended parochial school, earned a BS in Accounting, an MBA in Finance and her CPA.
Ellen feels she needs to be one of the voices that will help take back our country. Ellen has a unique ability to build a quick rapport with people, as she can often be found “working” the audience as part of her show. Ellen has also become very popular in the Greek American community, being one of few Greek female stand-up comedians. She performs her act “Greek Chicks Rule” at Church functions and Greek fundraisers, and is part of the popular “Greek Gods of Comedy.”
