Leanne Linsky
Comedian & Entrepreneur (Founder/CEO of Plauzzable)
In 2001 I enrolled in my very first comedy class. Five years later, I packed two suitcases and moved to New York to pursue comedy full-time. I performed, produced, and hosted a weekly open mic for over 7 years and produced and hosted a weekly stand-up show in New York’s East Village. I wrote, performed, and produced my critically acclaimed one-woman show in NY, DE, and DC.
Eventually, I moved to LA only to find myself spending more time on the freeway than on any stage. I continued to perform and produce weekly shows (and even co-hosted a podcast for a few years!), but getting from show to show was time-consuming. As a performer, I needed more opportunities for a live audience, real-time feedback, and opportunities to earn money doing comedy.
In August of 2019 BC (Before COVID), I began experimenting with online open mics using existing technologies. Although many of those same technologies got us through a pandemic, they weren't designed for live entertainment.
I went back to school and earned a master's degree in innovation and entrepreneurship to learn how to scale my idea. As soon as I graduated, I was accepted into an incubator and Plauzzable was hatched.
