Biography From her network debut on "The Late Show with David Letterman" to Comedy Central and Comics Unleashed, Karen's show is getting great reviews! David Brenner says, “Even if you can't spell Karen Rontowski, you'd better remember it, because she is GREAT!” Ms. Rontowski describes herself as having an optimistic outlook; everything is coming up roses when you talk to Karen. So what if her therapist says she’s in complete denial. The truth is, when it comes to her stand up comedy career, everything is coming up roses, or at least laughter. She describers herself as completely confident in her confusion. She never knows where she's going but she always gets there....5 minutes late. Comedian Karen Rontowski’s upbeat, optimistic and clean sense of humor has earned her headlining spots all over the world. She has also opened for such show biz legends as Bob Hope, Ray Charles and the Monkees. Often described as a “New Age Hippie” Rontowski says “there is no time like the present to be living in the past.” Karen’s real touring trips (not the ones in her head) include 45 of the 50 states, Canada, Japan, Greenland and all over Europe. She has also entertained the troops with tales of her Polish father who once put a drawbridge on their house… actually he just installed the garage door upside down. But that’s Karen…. always accentuating the positive.. A television favorite, you may have seen this hilarious woman on Comedy Central, Live at Gotham and Comics Unleashed. A regular on the Bob and Tom Radio Show, Karen keeps listeners laughing not only with her stand up, but also when she talks about her other career as a paranormal investigator. "Sometimes a ghost will just do the same thing over and over in life. That's why I want to move into a house that is haunted by a maid." Rontowski can also be seen in the movie shorts Return to Sender and Some Kind of Joke. |
What People are saying... “She wins the audience and has them in the palm of her hand from the first joke. This is the kin of off-the-wall yet endearing comedy that other comics can only dream of achieving” -Gram Slaton Executive Director Wheeler Opera House Aspen, CO “Karen was a great success! She turned an otherwise boring event into an evening full of fun and laughter. Our biggest concern was finding an comedienne that was non-offensive and catered to a sophisticated crowd. She far surpassed our expectations.” -Trevor Callan Vice President Merrill Lynch “Karen, your 2 standing ovations were so well deserved! To say our conventioneers loved you would be an understatement. BRAVO! INCREDIBLE! These are just a few of the superlatives of the many compliments we’ve heard from your performance during the National Association of Purchasing Managers Convention.” -George Dare Entertainment Coordinator and Event Planner For Purchase Pro “Karen Rontowski stole the show and had the audience in the palm of her hand as she comfortably paced the stage and offered her observational comedy. Karen, ah, Karen! What a breath of fresh air she is.” -Lyle E Davis Entertainment Critic for The Paper, Escondido, CA “I wish I had worn panty liners!” -Cheri Bauer Audience member “There are few comedians and even fewer female comedians that can make you laugh without using blue humor. Karen Rontowski may be the funniest woman on the planet and does it without resorting to humor that can be found offensive which is important when booking an entertainer for a corporate audience. There is no doubt in my mind that Karen is a shinning star that can top off any corporate event or meeting.” -Tony Calabrese President Point Loma Community Bank “Why is this woman in my dressing room?” -Tom Hanks Actor “Comedy with Class!” -The San Diego Tribune “…the best comedy I have seen in a long time!” -The Minneapolis Star Tribune. |
