Carolyn Agnew is a stand-up comedian with an unusual perspective on life.
A single mom who raised a child that went on to graduate with National Honors, Carolyn has debunked all the myths associated with single parenting in real life and onstage.
Carolyn has spent years working in under-paying jobs and was never appreciated for the talent she brought to the table. Carolyn took a giant leap of faith and embarked on a full-time comedy career in her 40’s.
Carolyn Agnew became interested in a comedy career in 1988. On a dare she went and did an open mic at a local comedy club. It was after that first performance she was self-declared “bitten by the comedy bug.”
Carolyn spent the next two years developing her act on audiences in the Washington D.C. /Baltimore areas, paying her dues with Dave Chappelle, Wanda Sykes and Patton Oswald.
