Taylor Grate is a New Haven, Connecticut native bringing big energy—and at 6'8", we mean big—to the West Coast comedy scene. Now based in Southern California, Grate turns dating disasters, childhood trauma, awkward encounters and everyday anxiety into sharp, fearless punchlines with a healthy dose of chaos.

A classically trained actor who started stand-up at just 17, he’s performed at NYC’s Broadway and EastVille Comedy Clubs, Mic Drop Comedy, Belly Up and more. He’s also stepped into the verbal boxing ring for Roast Battle at Jam in the Van.

Charming, unpredictable and impossible to overlook, Taylor Grate proves the jokes hit just as hard from way up there.
