About Mandy Nolan:
Comedian, Author, Journalist, MC, Keynote Speaker, Humour Therapist and Educator: Mandy Nolan is a true renaissance woman.
Her peers regularly declare her one of the strongest comedic talents in the country – with over 25 years of industry experience, the girl who kicked off her career supporting her heroes Whoopi Goldberg and Ertha Kitt recently spied Ruby Wax laughing in the front row of her country hall gig. Wax later congratulated Nolan on being ‘hysterically funny.’
Moving to Byron Bay in the mid 90’s Nolan pioneered a thriving comedy scene and heads up seven regular comedy rooms and two comedy festivals in the region. Building the industry from the ground up, Mandy has taught over 2000 people stand up comedy…including the Emmy Award winning Hannah Gadsby!
Her love of innovation saw her create Stand UP for Dementia, a peer reviewed humour therapy for people with Dementia, the subject of her TEDx talk. She has also created comedy programs for people with lived experience of mental illness, people with disabilities and children. She currently presents Authentic You with Dr George Catsi – a Masterclass that hones narrative and powerful presentation for people wanting to improve their speaking.
A published author, Nolan’s titles include ‘What I Would Do If I Were You’ & ‘Boyfriends We’ve All Had and Shouldn’t Have.’ Sydney Morning Herald’s Bruce Elder called Nolan ‘the country’s sharpest and wittiest comedic columnist’.
Oh, and by the way, Nolan is also the mother of 5 children, who she credits as the true source of her creativity. ‘When I had kids, everything else looked easy!’
