Tess Lincecum is a writer and comedian living in Los Angeles. Raised in Madison, Wisconsin, she came up in Chicago, attending DePaul University’s School of Cinematic Arts and performing comedy around the city. As a writer, Lincecum is whip smart and punchy, with a propensity for exploring dark subject matter with a goofy bent. As a performer, she’s embodied and expressive. Lincecum combines a child-like sense of play with an exacting eye for culture that makes for a razor-sharp yet unpretentious approach to her comedy. I Feel That Completely, her debut web series, is a monument to the creative ideas that make her tick: construction of identity in the age of social media, the horrors of codependent female friendship, and self-obsessed delusions of grandeur. She hopes you like it, otherwise this would be so awkward for the both of you.
Chloe Zarensky Werner is a director, writer, and comedian currently based in Chicago. Coming from New York City (okay you caught me, JUST outside of New York City) Chloe completed her BFA in directing at Depaul University’s School of Cinematic Arts and made a name for herself in the Chicago comedy scene with unique story driven performances at Second City, The Annoyance, The Lincoln Lodge and more. Her filmmaking sensibilities rely on offbeat humor, the erotic awkwardness of sex and sexuality, and primal desire in order to curate a singular experience for her audience. I Feel That Completely is Chloe’s first (completed) web series and biggest project to date. Shot in 2022 and premiering in 2024, I Feel That Completely is older than some people’s children.
