Producer and host bio:

Rachelle was born and raised in Ottawa but left when she was 19 years old to pursue a career in acting. She is a graduate of Bishop’s University and Studio 58 in Vancouver. Rachelle has written and performed five solo shows and her show S#!t I’m In Love With You Again was one of Mervyn Stutter’s Pick Of The Fringe at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017 and was invited to be a part of the Off-Broadway Encore Series in New York City. Five years ago she moved to the Almonte area with her OBGYN husband and teenage boys after living in Toronto for twenty five years.

At first it seemed like this move to the country could be career suicide for Rachelle but since moving here she has performed at the First Air Arctic Comedy Festival in Iqaluit with Mary Walsh, was nominated for Best Break Out Artist at the Canadian Comedy Awards and was chosen to perform at the 2019 Sirius XM HubCap Comedy Festival in Moncton with Tommy Chong. Her CD S#!T I’m in Love With You Again plays on SIRIUS XM-Just For Laughs Radio. In the five years she has lived in the Ottawa valley she has also produced fifteen shows in Almonte, Carleton Place, Carp, Orleans and Ottawa. She has also performed in The Women In Comedy Festival in Boston and headlines at Yuk Yuk’s in Ottawa.
