Natasha
Rothwell
doesn’t
just
enter
a
scene
—
she
hijacks
it
with
grace,
grit,
and
a
perfectly
delivered
side-eye.
Known
for
her
role
as
Kelli
in

Insecure,
writing
on

SNL,
and
scene-stealing
turns
in

The
White
Lotus,
Rothwell
blends
classical
training
with
radical
humor.
Her

comedy
is
culturally
fluent,
emotionally
honest,
and
saturated
in
authenticity
—
even
when
it’s
wrapped
in
wigs
and
gags.
She’s
the
kind
of
satirist
who
makes
you
feel
seen
while
she’s
reading
you
for
filth.

Rothwell
proves
that

comedy
can
be
radical
and
regal
—
and
that
softness
is
a
form
of
power
when
wielded
with
skill.

From
Writer’s
Room
to
Righteous
Icon

Rothwell
turned
intellectual
rigor,
expressive
finesse,
and

voice
that
uplifts
while
it
interrogates.

modern
satirists,
she’s
a
masterclass
in
balancing
levity
and
liberation
—
and
delivering
laughs
that
carry
weight
without
losing
rhythm.

with
sequins
and
soul.
