About Brooklyn, Stand Up!!


Kerry Coddett is an actress, comedian, and writer from Brooklyn, NY, who still resides in Brooklyn, NY. She lives an exciting life.


Kerry graduated cum laude from CUNY Baruch College with a B.A. in English and Psychology, and naturally, she decided to forego a career in either field. Jaunty by nature, Kerry sought to become a comedic actress and received training at Esper Studio, the Stella Adler Studio and HB Studio. She also studied at the People’s Improv Theater and the Upright Citizen’s Brigade (UCB), where she was able to further refine her comedic chops. Kerry is also a UCB Diversity Scholar.

Her work has been featured in Huffington Post, Elite Daily, Mashable and MadameNoire. Kerry can also be seen doing stand up at Caroline’s on Broadway, The Stand, and Stand Up NY, to name a few. She also writes and stars in her own sketch comedy web series, The Coddett Project.
She hopes that one day people will feel joy when they pronounce her last name!
