Biography

The Ryan and Amy Show is a Vancouver-based Canadian sketch comedy duo composed of Ryan Steele and Amy Goodmurphy. They have toured Canada and the United States including doing Sketch Fest in Montreal and Vancouver as well as Just For Laughs. The group produces sketch comedy shorts that are distributed via YouTube and on their website, but have appeared on other sites as well such as Funny or Die. Goodmurphy and Steele have starred together in many television shows including the YTV show The Funny Pit with Roman Danylo, The Face of Furry Creek, CBC's The Pitch, and Out For Laughs. Steele made a memorable appearance on The Amazing Race Canada in season 2, coming in 3rd place with co-worker Rob Goddard. While Goodmurphy has been in Super Channel's Too Much Information with Geri Hall, Mark Forward and Lauren Ash, as well as Thirty Seventeen directed by Michael Coleman. Currently the duo was short-listed for a Canadian Comedy Award in the Best Live Ensemble category in 2016.

Ryan Steele

Ryan Steele grew up in the city of Langley, British Columbia. He's an H. D. Stafford High School alumni. He became interested in comedy at an early age, and started making comedy videos in his early-teens, with early successes 'Ferry Death' and 'Big Mac Attack'. After being diagnosed with testicular cancer at 19, he gave up the dream of being a comedian for a while. In his late 20's he went to a Tony Robbins' like workshop where he was told to start doing Sketch Comedy, so he started his own ensemble sketch show.

Amy Goodmurphy

Amy Goodmurphy grew up in North Vancouver, British Columbia, and is a St. Thomas Aquinas Regional Secondary School alumni. She started comedy at the age of 23 after meeting Steele at the bar where he worked. He convinced her it would be worth her while to join his ensemble sketch show. It wasn't, so she started studying acting at Vancouver Acting School, graduating in 2012.

Style

The Ryan And Amy Show is unique in that it doesn't just do sketch comedy but is interspersed with previously recorded video. The smart transitions from video to sketch back to video is unrivaled in the industry today. Their style spans a wide variety from Horror to Displacement sketches. They've been described as a modern day Three's Company meets Mr. Dressup, for their affinity for tickle trunk magic and the lingering question of whether Steele may actually be straight.
