Originally hailing from Nigeria, the Acrobeats capital of the world,
Akudo Ejelonu is a Philadelphia-based stand-up comedian, sketch writer, improviser, and cool aunt. With low-key charisma and fresh wit, she's performed across the country and the globe in notable festivals. She's also one half of the producing duo behind the "Laff Hour Variety Show" and creator/producer of "Hey Gyrl Hey," all womyn of color sketch comedy production.
When not producing or traveling, she can be found letting out her inner child or telling tales about stranger encounters in theaters, clubs, and questionable bus stops across New York City and Philadelphia. Or, failing that, you can find her hiding from her nieces and nephews. (Shh, don't tell them!) And of course, you can always find her on her comedy website,
