Featuring: Dani Bee
Dani is known for her hilarious impersonations, razor-sharp standup comedy, and her “girl next door” personality. Dani has been making people laugh her entire life…and working in standup and sketch comedy for the last seven years. Dani had an interesting start. She began her career making people laugh while speaking at funerals for several residents of an assisted living facility where she worked as an activity director. Now, Dani can be seen nationally in theatres, private events and comedy clubs across the country. She has performed in places like the The Comedy Club in Los Angeles and did a comedy tour in Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival in August of 2022. Dani just shot her first commercial with KIA and it will air this March of 2023. She has the privilege of being in her first comedy pilot in August of 2022 and is hopeful to do more acting this year. She is currently on tour with her one woman show, Laugh After Death which will be showcased at the SoloFest 2025 in California next year. The most amazing thing about Dani is that she does all of this while raising two children and a husband! Follow her @comedianDaniBee
