Amy Tee is one of the busiest comedians in the curcuit today. Charming and playful, this winning combination provides a twisted dance between stereotypes and reality. Identified by the Boston Globe as a rising star, and in Curve magazine as one of the "funniest lesbians in America," she’s a regular performer at the Boston Comedy Festival, and also featured on Sirius XM Satellite Radio & LOGO television network. Her straightforward but subtle approach results in non-stop hilarity with everyone from mainstream to alternative audiences from Los Angeles to NYC to Newburyport!
