Carmen Lynch to Bring LYNCHED to Edinburgh Fringe

Carmen Lynch to Bring LYNCHED to Edinburgh Fringe Image

In her UK debut hour LYNCHED, Carmen Lynch (The Late Show with David Letterman, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert) shares her twisted, singular stand-up comedy that frequently dips into the dark side. Childless and drug-free (but only because of her heart murmur), she'll share her views on Jesus, giraffes, scoliosis, her Spanish mother, and very often, death.

Carmen Lynch comes to the Edinburgh Fringe after enjoying a host of high profile television appearances. As well as The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and twice on The Late Show with David Letterman, she has been featured on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Conan, @midnight (Comedy Central), Inside Amy Schumer, and The Good Wife.

On the big screen Carmen appeared in Miu Miu's series of Women's Tales directed by Chloe Sevigny entitled Carmen, now available on YouTube.

Carmen has performed for US troops in Iraq and Kuwait, and continues to tour in Spanish-speaking countries doing standup in Spanish. When she isn't on the road, Carmen can usually be found at The Comedy Cellar in NYC. Her comedy album Dance Like You Don't Need the Money is available on iTunes and on her website.
