How to Raise a Narcissist – Stand-Up Comedy Show
By Jen Kirwin
Jen Kirwin delivers a sharp, self-deprecating hour of stand-up that takes on politics, motherhood, and life as an expat. Drawing on over two decades of performing across Europe and the United States, Jen blends global perspective with brutally honest observations about modern life, and her own questionable parenting decisions.
A finalist on NBC’s Last Comic Standing and a performer at Just for Laughs, Jen most recently debuted this hour at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and is currently touring Europe. In 2025, she had the honor of opening for Wanda Sykes’ Please & Thank You Tour across Europe and the UK.
Known for her quick, joyful crowd work and rapid-fire asides, Jen creates a spontaneous, inclusive atmosphere where audience members may briefly find themselves part of the show — always playfully, never cruelly. Her instinctive riffs and in-the-moment energy ensure that no two performances are ever the same, making each show feel personal, unpredictable, and alive.
