Cory Mack
Cory is a clean and very funny comedian and storyteller with a unique brand of prairie sass. Her demure disposition is a smokescreen for her humour that’s replete with sharp one-liners that go for the jugular.

testimonials
"Thank you for representing your craft so well. You were hilarious. You are a true professional and did an excellent job creating an exceptional experience for all of us. As hard as it must be in this format, you truly connected with the audience. Congrats. "
"I loved that Cory asked us to all unmute so we could hear each other laughing and enjoying the show as a team, through the virtual platform. Cory was able to keep everyone engaged- with her wit and energy."
"Doing stand-up over a virtual platform probably poses so many difficulties, I can’t even imagine, but she was absolutely splendid! Everyone was so happy with her!"
