Joanne Filan
"Stand-Up, Stream ofConsciousness,
Sarcasm”
Growing up in New Jersey, Joanne was
repeatedly assured of one thing; “You’re so
funny, you should do comedy”.  Armed with
that knowledge she headed off in the most
obvious of comedic directions, college in Florida
to major in Marine Biology.  A couple little
twists and turns on the road since graduating
and she is now a steady fixture on the NYC
comedy scene.   

Six years into the business Joanne has never
been more on top of her game.  She
consistently delivers a unique “stream of
consciousness” style of humor that keeps
audiences either rolling in the aisles or on the
edges of their seats, anxious to hear what she
has to say next.  With an amazing gift for
improv, razor-sharp wit, and a subtle delivery,
Joanne is an unexpected gem-a comedian so
able to tap into the moment that no two
shows are ever alike.

Joanne’s television credits include Here TV’s
Hot Gay Comics. She is also a regular at a
number of NYC comedy clubs, such as Gotham
Comedy Club, Broadway Comedy Club, and
New York Comedy Club, to name a few.  
Joanne continues to be a fixture in the
traveling comedy show “Broads of Broadway”
and has performed in the gayly hilarious
monthly show, “Homo Comicus”. On stage her
distinct style transcends the mediocre and
catches attention before she even says a
word.  Once she does, audiences are
guaranteed a rare commodity in today’s
comedy – something refreshing, original and
fun.
