an actor, writer, & comic in Los Angeles

Lauren Faulkner is an actor and comic in Los Angeles, CA. She's been busy these last 9 years, performing in a dozen short films, delivering countless stand-up sets, and starring in two Lifetime network features. Thousands of hopefuls submitted for roles in "A Party Gone Wrong (2021)" and "Spring Break Nightmare (2023)." Lauren stood out. Her character Becky in SBN was the fan favorite across social platforms the night of the premier, particularly on X, formerly Twitter. Lauren's work on the short film "Caroline (2019)" earned her significant recognition. She was awarded Best Actress in an Indie Film from both Top Shorts and New York Film Awards and received a nomination for Best Actress from First Glance Film Festival. Watch Caroline.
When she's not working in film, Lauren has found a real audience in live performance, specifically in immersive theatre & stand-up. The last two holiday seasons, she's been the host of the dark holiday pop-up, Krampus Cove from Black Lagoon Popups, bringing her crowd work and witty remarks to the likes of Hollywood. Before that, you may have seen her hosting The Wizards Den Pop-up as Lavinia Lavender, originally set to run 6 months but extended a full year by popular demand. Most recently she was requested to portray a disgruntled landlord for a private murder mystery event in Joshua Tree, the guests of which had no idea she was a part of the action. "I felt my heart beating out of my chest when I entered the house and the way the girls began arguing with me, I knew they had no idea. It was a thrill!"
Lately, Lauren has been exploring her voice in comedy; writing sketches, and lending her talents to other writers including YouTube sketch series, "Nope That's a Toe." She's very proud of her parody sketch on the Variety series, Actors on Actors in which she stars with actor and director, Steph Martinez.
Lauren has spent the last few months writing and plans to bring more of her comedy to life in early 2025.
She is currently represented commercially by Sovereign Talent Group and managed by Gary Churchwell of Church Hugger Management.

Actors on Actors: A PARODY
Inspired by the conversation between Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt on Variety's hit series, I couldn't help but see the immense comedic potential here. This thing practically wrote itself. I plan to tackle "Open Door" next so stay tunned! And in the meantime, check out the Actors on Actors Parody on YouTube!
RESUME
I've been making the rounds as a stand-up comic in Los Angeles. I've showcased my sets at Fourth Wall, The Comedy Chateau, and SoFitel Beverly Hills, to name a few. I've found my strength and comfort lies in story-telling. It's nice to know other people besides my patient friends find me funny. Click the flyer to view my highlights.
Did I mention I also do voiceover??
