Charlie Burkley Comedy

Charlie Burkley is a comic, and generally too loud of a person, who hails originally from Goshen, IN. He found his comedic calling amidst the vibrant energy of Goshen’s resident improv troupe, GoProv, in 2017. While not playing as often with GoProv, Charlie has taken more to playing with himself since he began performing stand-up comedy in 2021.

With a knack for tickling funny bones, Charlie has taken his show across the Midwest, including The Cleveland Comedy Festival, Go Bananas Comedy Club in Cincinnati, and Helium Comedy Club in Indianapolis. He’s had the privilege to open up for the likes of Pandji Pragiwaksono, Brian “The Lion” Sullivan, Wyatt Lutz, Sean Shank, Nervous Vurn & Munchie from Bob & Tom, Koffe Black, Paul Farahvar, Justin Pedick, Ree Ledbetter, Adam Gable, Joe Elder, Jacob Barr, and Jenni Rodriguez. When he’s not traveling, he can often be found at open mics across Northern Indiana, as well as The Underground Laugh Lounge in Niles, MI.

His former sociology professor described his act as, “brash, vulgar, insightful, profane, and definitely not appropriate for class… but very funny.” With each joke and punchline, Charlie continues to captivate audiences with his distinct comedic style. As always Charlie ends his bio by thanking his 7th grade drama teacher for forcing him to audition for the fall play and sparking his love for performing… It's the world’s problem now.
