Alyson Weaver Nicholas

Recovering Texas debutante Alyson Weaver Nicholas grew up believing impressive duck hunting skills and evening gowns were the key to upward mobility. Now, she writes and does stand-up comedy about people coming to terms with reality. These days reality includes shedding tears of joy every time her one-year-old son poops inside his diaper.

Alyson’s comedy has been featured at Hollywood Improv, The Comedy Store, and over thirty national venues. She is an Oakie award recipient, a Hugo Shong/IDG Fellow, and a proficient rapper when served enough rosé. Alyson holds an MFA from USC’s John Wells School of Writing for Screen and Television.
