BOLSTER & LEE - Comedy Duo
If John Cleese had kids with Lucille Ball, the results might be Bolster and Lee.
With their strong rapport, Annie Lee (The Kransky Sisters) and Clint Bolster ( BOOFF, Slava Snow Show), became creative collaborators in 2004 and have continued to develop characters to play together ever since. From crazy male duos and siblings of all sorts to mother and son teams and various clowns, these two talents have paired their uniquely funny souls with considerable skills to significant effect.
