“Rotten Apple” is Maya Upchurch’s ranty, angry, morally corrupt debut stand-up hour. Inspired by the likes of Bill Hicks, Bill Burr and Joan Rivers, she's a high-energy force of Gen-Z nature who lacks the ability to speak of anything other than exactly what's on her mind. Based in Berlin, she's got a truckload of tales from the European capital of hedonism and her Polish/American background means she really knows how to take a shot. Haha get it? Anyway... While Upchurch most certainly will make fun of everyone and everything on her path, her favorite person to roast is undoubtedly herself. Bringing light to her time-wasting habits, irrational anxieties, and dependence on technology, she believes that "punching-up" is best done when its an upper-cut to yourself.
Upchurch started doing standup in 2020, but shortly after her first set there was lockdown because China was scared of her power. Since then she's done shows all around Europe, was a featured in The New York Times, performed with “Don't Tell Comedy,” opened for the likes of Todd Barry, Dragos G, Victor Patrascan, and did all sorts of other really cool and exciting stuff that should definitely make you want to book a ticket if the incredible shot joke earlier on didn't already convince you.
