Upland Presents: Pump Up The Laughs!

Announcing a monthly comedy series in Columbus, Indiana: Pump Up The Laughs! where we will have a well-known comedian with special guests in the Upland Columbus Pump House basement event space.

This month's headliner is the incomparable Mandee McKelvey! Mandee McKelvey was recently named one of the 50 best undiscovered comics in the country by Thrillist, and it's not hard to see why. As one of the Midwest's most acclaimed stand-up comedians, Mandee is revered for her ability to spin tragedy into comedy.

Mandee recently headlined the first-ever MiddleGround Comedy Festival and Columbus Comedy Festival, as well as filming her first comedy special. She was named a breakout performer at the Limestone Comedy Festival. She has recently featured for Whitney Cummings, Michelle Wolf, Hannah Berner, Michael Ian Black, Laurie Kilmartin, Tig Notaro, Todd Barry, and Anthony Jeselnik. Her one-woman show, My Left Boob, received the Underdog Award for it’s sold-out debut at the 2019 IndyFringe and Kansas City’s Best of Fringe award in 2022 and 2023.

There is a 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM Show.

Please Note - there is a two item minimum per person in the showroom. Item can be food or drink, both of which are delicious at Upland.

This series is sponsored by The Office of Downtown Development Columbus.
