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.

Guffaws Galore!

Paula came to my Birthday Party pretty and pumped-up to entertain! She made everyone feel at ease, with her welcoming personality and her quick and friendly wit! Her presence and well-crafted comedic delivery, elevated the mood and experience, of all who attended! Part of her bit (it’s @ the end of show), is a thing called “This is your Life” and it custom-tailors the show to the person being honored. It’s a wonderfully creative way that personalizes the show, in a loving fashion. I appreciated all of Paula’s creativity and her attention to the details. She was a wonderful communicator and has a knack for personable interactivity within her show, that proved to produce, the wonderful time, that was had by all! Thanks again, Paula! You made my Birthday!!

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!!

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!
