PictureBessie | Katie Blackburn
Katie Blackburn (Bessie) has been entertaining audiences through professional theatre and stand-up comedy for more than 25 years. Her spontaneous humor and quick wit have enabled Katie to get through everything in life from divorce to death to raising her 3 children. As an actress with Lamb's Players, a professional theatre company, she has toured the country as well as performed on their resident stage. Her roles have included both drama and comedy. Katie has also produced, written and directed large productions for churches in Southern California.

One of her great loves is comedy. As "Bessie" in the stand-up comedy show "Bessie & Beulah", Katie has delighted audiences around the country for 18 years and has shared the stage with Barbara Bush, Dan Quayle, and Paul Harvey.

Katie was one of the founding members of SAK Theatre, a Minnesota-based theatre company which later became one of the major entertainment attractions at Disney's Epcot Center in Orlando, Florida.

Her years of theatre experience includes Peaseblossom in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Dr. Armstrong in Agatha Christie's "Ten Little Indians", Simone Boniface in Victor Hugo's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", and Mrs. Ruddle, the know-it-all housekeeper in "Busman's Honeymoon". She has also done voice-over work for the San Diego Wild Animal Park and the Reuben H. Fleet Space Theatre as well as film training for the California Police Officer's Satellite Training Program.

With a few years of life experience (we won't say exactly how many!) under her belt, Katie is quick to make you laugh as she tells it like it is. Her hilarious opinions will both mesmerize and enlighten you.
