About Stacy

Stacy Mayer is a performer, creator and visionary.

She recently self produced and completed 26 performances at the 2009 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the world’s largest arts festival.

As an event producer, actor, comedian, director, writer, creative thinker and entrepreneur, Stacy has broken the mold in what one person can achieve in a week.

She is currently interviewing her peers for her third one woman show, The Funeral Crasher.  This collection of real-life (and death) stories will appear in the inaugural presentation of The Hollywood Fringe Festival.  Stacy plays all of the characters in this deeply emotional and hilarious piece.

Her love of playing characters began when she portrayed the role of Bunny in her University of Michigan production of The House of Blue Leaves.  Since then, Stacy has gone on to perform at Second City and Chicago’s famous ImprovOlympic, where Tina Fey and Amy Poehler of Saturday Night Live fame started out. Like that pair, Mayer then came to New York dreaming of the big time and, sensing a gap in the market for comic theatre, set up the Manhattan Comedy Collective.

She lives and works in New York City where she has been fortunate enough to cross paths with some of the city’s leading entrepreneurs.  These interactions with healthy inspiring individuals compelled her to reach out even more and create Local Foods NYC, a local foods delivery service.

A born and raised Kentucky girl, Stacy is always trying to reach out and connect with her peers, whether it’s through her stories on the stage, in a yoga class or through her vegetable deliveries.  And she strives to live each day to the fullest because, “Life is nothing but a dream fulfilled.  How you are remembered after your death is part of that dream.” –Stacy Mayer: The Funeralogues.
