Keith Lyle was born and raised on the mean streets of Chicago. Well... It was the suburbs, but it was still tough. His house was filled with the loud, loving tirades of his family.
Having been immersed in a 2 parent home, the yelling never stopped. Because of this, he had a difficult time fitting in at school. Realizing that making people laugh is truly a gift that keeps on giving, Keith began to develop his strong sense of humor.
Keith's quick wit and topical material take you from the front page to inside his head, and the depth of his family's dysfunctions
He has been in several commercials and TV shows, and films. His biggest role to date was having 4 lines in the blockbuster movie “The Hangover”. He may have had more screen time as a dead body on CSI, but hey- it's 4 lines in a better movie than Tom Hanks made that year. He also has roles in the films “Holding Lucid” directed by John Bizarre and “A Tribute to Fluffy” directed by Micah Cyrus. Keith co wrote and stars in a new web series currently in production called “Class Clowns”.
Keith was honored to be selected as the feature act for headliner Don Barnhart. In the summer of 2012, Keith made his 1st trip overseas to entertain the troops in Kuwait. In 2013, he went to Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Jordan, Spain, Portugal and Greece on 2 separate trips in the "Don Barnhart All Star Comedy Tour" for Armed Forces Entertainment. He went overseas again in October 2014 and again in August of 2015 as part the “Battle Comics” Tour for AFE. Since 2017, Keith has been one of the House Emcees at Jokesters Comedy Club & Delirious Comedy Club in Las Vegas.
Between stand up gigs in 2019, Keith diversified his resume by acting in plays “Driving Miss Daisy” (as “Boolie”) as well as “The House of Tomorrow”. He is also an original member on the Pro Team roster for improv juggernaut Comedysportz Las Vegas franchise.
He has also hosted a week each for the popular websites Tweet the Joke and Dear Comic and had the most online votes in the Improv's "Up Yours Contest in 2012. Keith is active on social media with over 79,000 Twitter followers, and countless friends on Facebook and Instagram.
