About Me |

If one were to cross the sweet grooving persona of Ellen Degeneres with Denis Leary’s raunchy sarcasm, the result would be Poppy Champlin. Poppy erupts onto the stage without fanfare, but with enough energy to take down the house in her first minute of comedy. Rapid fire jokes interspersed with comedic songs keep her audiences laughing and coming back. Her stand-up pedigree is flawless; from VH-1, to A&E, Oprah Winfrey and Joan Rivers to her newest gig on Atlantis cruises she has earned a reputation of being one of the fastest witted female comediennes on either coast. Graduating from The University of Rhode Island with a BFA in theatre, Poppy set out for Chicago where she attended the famed Second City Comedy Troupe. She refined her chops in Chicago opening for such comics as Ray Ramano, Denis Leary, Bill Maher, Bill Hicks and Rosie O’Donnell. When Poppy hit tinsel town, she continued to study acting at the Larry Moss studios and has since put up her critically acclaimed One Woman Show, “A Chocolate Sandwich.” She was a staff writer on FOX’s Show Me The Funny. Poppy currently can be seen performing her comedy, in the new HBO Documentary “All Aboard Rosie’s Family Vacation” as well as, hosting her own popular comedy show; “Cocktails and Comedy” at the infamous GirlBar in West Hollywood. Ever increasing her visibility, she is a regular performer in Provincetown, at the Dinah Shore Weekend, and the Chicago Sun Times called her "Blisteringly Funny" in her appearance at the closing ceremonies of the Gay Games. Poppy tackles tough subjects with ease. In this comedienne’s hands we can laugh at life’s most formidable perils... and laughter that ravages fear is the best kind of all.
