Hi!

Lanee’ Sanders

Writer, Performer, DirectoR, Cookie Enthusiast

 

Lanee' is a Brooklyn based comedy writer, director and performer who would, under normal circumstances, never say this many things about herself in a row. She is currently a staff writer at The Daily Show and she has previously written for Tha God’s Honest Truth, College Humor, Reductress, Girl Tales and most importantly(? tbd), for herself. She serves as the Sketch Program Director at the Magnet Theater where she also performs Friday nights with her veteran sketch team, The Nitro Girls. She improvises all over the city with her all-black team of superfriends, Good at Sports. She worked as a Writer's Assistant for Netflix's sketch comedy show, Astronomy Club, and was a finalist for NBC’s Late Night Writers Workshop. She has also worked in a number of law firms, and it's frankly astounding how little she can tell you about any law.

Lanee' has performed at Austin Sketch Fest, Baltimore Improv Fest, Boston Comedy Arts Festival, Chicago SketchFest, DCM, NYC Improv Fest, Seattle Sketch Fest and once at a synagogue where a man exclaimed she was a dead ringer for Michelle Obama.
Cool.
