Ryan Kelly was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri where he started comedy as an improviser. He was trained at schools such as IO, Second City, UCB and Groundlings. He then ventured off to college where he wanted to try new exciting things, and thus he began his foray into performing stand-up comedy. He has performed stand-up comedy around the Midwest, in Missouri, Michigan and Chicago, Illinois. His affinity for having absurd life experiences helped create his story telling style of comedy and the fact that he looks like a youth pastor made sure he kept it clean. His wild stories from negotiating a better deal during a mugging, surviving a plane crash and being tackled inside the NSA will leave you laughing and captivated. Ryan can now be found in Hollywood, California where he is a regular host and comedian at Flapper’s in Burbank.
