JFL Toronto Interview: Stand-up, writer, and actress Chloe Radcliffe
Talking about her one-woman show, coming up to Winnipeg for festivals, and her web series, 'In Tandem'
Filed under: Kinda Sorta Maybe Like a Podcast
Stand-up comic, writer, and actress Chloe Radcliffe has been hitting milestone after milestone the last several years. The Minnesota native moved to New York City in 2018 after appearances at Oddblock Comedy Festival, the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, and a stand-out performance at the New York Comedy Festival, being named by TBS as a "Comic to Watch". She's also made up-and-coming comedian lists from Deadline and Vulture in recent years, while establishing herself as a writing force with a year on The Tonight Show and a Writers Guild of America nomination for the Steven Soderbergh-directed Command Z (which she also starred in alongside Roy Wood Jr. and Michael Cera).
Appearing at Just for Laughs Toronto September 25 & 26 with a pair of headlining shows, I got to catch up with Chloe over Zoom about her earlier years coming up to Canada for those Winnipeg-based festivals (which is where I first saw her do stand-up); the development of (and next stages for) her one-woman show, Cheat; and her incredible web series In Tandem, where she talks with other comics while riding a tandem bike through NYC or L.A.
