Bio
Chris Cyr is a nationally touring stand-up comedian based out of St. Louis, Missouri. He’s a regular feature and headliner at clubs, theaters, and independent shows around the country. Chris has been a contestant on NPR’s “Ask Me Another” (he lost) and was an expert commentator in a History Channel documentary (about zombies). He has performed at festivals around the country, including Flyover Comedy Invasion (St. Louis, MO), SnoJam Comedy Festival (Sioux Falls, SD), North Carolina Comedy Festival (Greensboro, NC), and Laugh After Dark Comedy Fest (Las Vegas, NV). Chris has been fortunate enough to open for some of his favorite comics, including Marc Maron, Dick Gregory, Kyle Kinane, Melissa Villsenor, and others.
By combining his love for storytelling with a keen wit and unique writing style, Chris takes audiences on a journey that’s sometimes cerebral, sometimes ridiculous, and always ends in laughter. His album, “Adult Child of Child Parents” was recently released on a national label, and is available on Amazon, iTunes, and wherever you listen to comedy.
