Our New Host, Amy Tee
“Not every crazy looks crazy,” says Amy, the comedian and motivational speaker who brings her boyish charm and dry wit to the stage with a storytelling style that shifts between stereotypes and reality. She delivers comedy with stigma-busting honesty. “I feel alive,” she says of the work. “I’m candid and exposed yet still fully clothed. Identified by the Boston Globe as a comedian to watch, and in Curve magazine as one of the “funniest lesbians in America,” Amy toured nationally and was a featured comedian in the film, “Laughing Matters — The Next Generation.” She remains a fixture on the comedy circuit, is a regular performer at the Boston Comedy Festival, and has been featured on Sirius XM Satellite Radio and the LOGO television network.
Val Kappa
Val is a stand-up comic and visual artist who started out in the Boston comedy scene while attending Emerson College. She then moved to New York to continue honing her comedic skills. She has headlined nationally at colleges and performed at comedy clubs, theaters, and rock clubs all over. She has appeared on Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend” and was the voice of Clarice/Lil Mama on the cult cartoon “Home Movies.” In 2018, Val produced her first live comedy show — “The Sleepy Time Comedy Show” — at The Riot Theater in Roslindale which was a Boston Globe “critic’s pick.” She often opens for Tig Notaro and has opened for Jen Kirkman and Gary Gulman.
