Hot Boys

by Kali Tripodis

Virtual production

 

Kali Tripodis is comedian and musician with a penchant for chaos. As a movie-loving 90s kid, true love was always drilled into Kali's head as the absolute pinnacle of success. Because of this, she centered herself around the male gaze and subconsciously molded her personality for their pleasure. The moment she laid eyes on her first crush, her life forever shifted onto a path that would ultimately lead her to violently throwing up in a Red Lobster. Hot Boys is a comedic and musical exploration of this. Hot Boys is a multimedia experience with original songs, tragic stories, and personal triumph. It is a show for those of us who have lost touch with ourselves to please others. It is a show for those of us who have sacrificed too much for a fantasy that was never real. It is a show for those of us who have had to rediscover ourselves like an old, estranged friend. Never lose yourself for love. But if you do, make sure it’s not to a convicted coke dealer with a Justin Timberlake tattoo.

Kali Tripodis is a writer and performer who is just waiting for you to ask her about Shrek. She is a writer for the house sketch team at Armory Comedy, and was a member of a house sketch team and house improv team at Second City in Los Angeles. She's also currently performing her solo show, Hot Boys, around New York City. You can follow her on Instagram @kalisucks to get the dates for that, or to look at Guy Fieri memes. Kali is also an accomplished pianist and singer, and you can find her belting Lady Gaga at piano bars all over town.
