Very Funny Lady!

Paula put on an amazing stand up presentation in front of about 40 ladies for a menopause education event at our wine bar! She delivered the perfect amount of humor needed to make this serious topic lots of fun! I highly recommend Paula!!

Paula Gilchrist - Wonderful Comedian!

Paula Gilchrist is a comedic force to be reckoned with, and her recent performance at my Mother's 89th birthday party left the audience in stitches from start to finish. Her unique blend of sharp wit, observational humor, and charismatic stage presence creates an unforgettable experience that resonates with people of all ages and backgrounds.

Gilchrist's ability to connect with her audience is truly remarkable. She has a keen eye for the absurdities of everyday life and transforms them into hilarious anecdotes that feel both personal and universally relatable. Whether she’s riffing on the quirks of modern technology, the trials of family life, or the peculiarities of social interactions, her material is both fresh and timeless.

One of Paula’s greatest strengths is her delivery. She possesses an impeccable sense of timing, knowing exactly when to pause for effect or to accelerate her pace to keep the momentum going. Her expressive face and animated gestures further enhance her storytelling, making each joke land with maximum impact. The crowd’s laughter is a testament to her skill—it's clear that she knows how to read a room and tailor her performance to keep everyone engaged.

Moreover, Paula’s charm lies in her authenticity. She doesn’t shy away from sharing her own vulnerabilities and life experiences, which only endears her more to the audience. This level of openness not only makes her comedy more relatable but also creates a genuine connection between her and her listeners.

Overall, Paula Gilchrist is a master of her craft. Her ability to blend humor with heart makes her stand out in the comedy world. Whether you’re a long-time fan or seeing her for the first time, a night with Paula is guaranteed to be filled with laughter, insight, and a sense of camaraderie. If you have the chance to see her perform live, don’t miss it—you’re in for a comedic treat that you’ll be talking about long after the show ends.

A Consumate Professional

I worked with Paula for the very first time this past Valentine's Day on a high-profile project that required someone professional, flexible, and of course, funny! She delivered across the board. She's absolutely delightful, helped me look good, and charmed the 200+ out on a date at the Historic Ritz Theatre in downtown Brunswick, GA. She opened the show with her typical level of performance perfection. Then in the middle of the show I asked her to pivot and do a comedy "duet" with me on stage to change from something expected to unexpected. We managed pretty well, it was fun, and the audience was very appreciative. I'd work with her again in a heartbeat. I admired her pressionalism and just as important, I liked her personally. She won't disappoint!!

70th Birthday Celebration

We hired Paula Gilchrist to provide comedy at my husband 70th birthday celebration. Her performance was great. She kept it clean and funny for we had a wide range of demographics from teens to elderly. She was great to work with, engaged with the audience, very professional and showed up early. She moved through topics that captured laughs and interest. Thank you Ms Gilchrist. We appreciate you and the laughs.

About

Paula is a self proclaimed “MWA” Mommy with an Attitude! She has performed in Atlanta, at The Punchline Comedy Club, Comedy Under the Stairs at the Basement Theatre, “Slice of Life Comedy Showcase” in Asheville, NC, Laughing Skull Comedy Lounge, Just Jokes Entertainment, Hit'em with Laughs Productions, and Hysterical Events, she was featured in two sold out shows for 2012 “Sisters in Spanx Comedy Showcase” at Jerry Farber’s Side Door in Buckhead and the PeachPit Comedy Show in Conyers. She tied for 2nd Place at the StarDome Comedy Competition in Birmingham, AL in July 2012.

You can expect professionalism, a non-DIVA attitude and a comedienne that loves to smile and make people laugh! The material Paula covers comes from her experience as a , corporate ladder climbs and falls, business ventures, married life, the entertainment industry and her personal insight on things that are just NONE OF HER BUSINESS...but she is putting her 2 cents in anyway! That's what wives and moms do!
