BRIELLE DEMIRJIAN

Brielle DeMirjian (“Brielle” to friends) is a writer/comedian/improviser from NYC.

She is precisely 5’4” but aspires to be 5'7", and her hands are 8mm longer than the universal average. "Brielle" (I'm her friend, I can call her that) was a house performer and teacher at UCB for 7 years, where her performance was regularly considered "loud" and "while wearing boots in the summer". She can now be seen at Caveat improvising in And Scene and ruining lives in Abolish Everything.

She co-hosts the comedy podcast Who’s That Pokémon? where she and Pokémon expert Brandon Zelman meticulously break down every single creature of this universe. Brielle knows nothing about Pokémon, but recently has taken to Sudowoodo due to his very stupid nature.

Brielle and Mick wrote a dark comedy about the reverence of true crime called “Sweet Baby Angel”.

A dark comedy where a painfully ordinary woman believes that the only way for her to achieve greatness is to get murdered by a serial killer.
*Rated in the top 4% of scripts on The Blacklist.*
“The dark humor is what makes this story shine, with a tone both manic and eerie.”
- The Blacklist
“…a silly, canny comedy that takes the absurdity of true crime culture to the extreme.”
- The Blacklist

Brielle wrote an episode of The Truth podcast called “Swallowed”: when Jonah is swallowed by the whale, he isn’t the only one in there. A story about history being written by the victors, and how blind faith can lead you in either direction. Listen here!

She’s also written an original pilot about medieval spinsters wreaking havoc on their village, an original mockumentary about a failing cult, a spec script for Law and Order: SVU where Willy Wonka is the villain (or the victims—trauma is a cycle as Olivia Benson knows), and a number of original poems (the whimsical kind that rhyme—think bridge troll).
