Merit Kahn - Optimistic Personality Disorder

Optimistic Personality Disorder - If a TED Talk and a tequila shot had a baby, it would be this hilarious & heartwarming show!

What do you get when you mix a stand-up comic, a master storyteller, and a woman who’s been through some things?

Optimistic Personality Disorder is a hilariously healing one-woman comedy show that blends live comedy, theatrical storytelling, and real-life wisdom into a night you’ll never forget. It’s the kind of live performance that proves laughter really is the best therapy (no co-pay required).

From cringe-worthy parenting moments to wildly inappropriate dating stories, Merit Kahn turns 50 years of life into a comedy cocktail of real talk, raw emotion, and razor-sharp wit. This is feel-good, funny-as-hell stand-up meets theater- a smart, relatable comedy night perfect for anyone who’s survived… well, anything.

You’ll laugh. You might cry. You’ll definitely leave feeling better about your own life.

It’s part stand-up, part theater, part TED Talk... all heart.

🎭 Grab your girlfriends, your grown-up kids, your main squeeze, or come solo and meet your new favorite people. Whether you’re looking for a memorable girls night out, a unique live comedy experience, or just something uplifting and fun to do, this is the show.
