LIZZIE BOECK

Lizzie Boeck is a multi-hyphenate writer, comedian and actress. A 6’2” former Division I basketball player and Hall of Famer, she brings the same discipline, drive, and (unavoidable) presence to her creative career. 

 

A pastor’s kid from the Midwest, and the sixth of seven children, Lizzie naturally turned to humor to make sense of life’s chaos. Her clean comedy blends self-deprecation and observation as she shares stories of growing up poor in a big, loud, Lutheran family, remaining a Christian in a messy world, and the struggles of dating (and life) as a tall woman. As a stand-up, she has charmed audiences at LA’s top venues (The Comedy Store, Hollywood Improv, Laugh Factory and Westside Comedy Theater), as well as on stages across the country. 

 

Lizzie is a conservatory graduate of Second City Hollywood and further developed as an improvisor and performer with The Groundings. Combining her ability to command a room with her sharp wit and sass, she plays comedic, relatable characters grounded in reality. 

 

Lizzie studied screenwriting through UCLA Extension Writer’s Program. She writes both individually and with her writing partner, creating character-driven comedies that highlight life's comic disasters.
