BEST STAND-UP COMEDIAN: HELEN KEANEY

BEST OF TAMPA 2022 ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT STAFF PICK
Seeing Keaney is pretty easy. All you need is basic cable or a good antenna (they still make those, right?). She’s a regular host on the Home Shopping Network, so if you watch that channel, she’s bound to pop up eventually. But that version of Keaney—sanitized and safe—is nothing like what you’ll see on comedy club stages. And even though she’s been performing for decades, stand-up had been on the back burner for a while. Fortunately, that’s been changing, as she’s now hitting Florida stages regularly and booking tour dates around the country (including a successful New York run earlier this year). Comedy is becoming a priority again, and her shows are still an adult mix of prepared material and spontaneous audience interaction. It’s a far cry from what she’s selling on television, and stand-up audiences are definitely buying.
