Emily @ Helium Comedy Club
I'm a longtime comedian who has performed everywhere from sold-out comedy clubs to bars to baby showers to 90th birthday parties to everything (and I mean everything) in between all over the country. I'll pull you in with my friendly demeanor and relatable, hilarious material about my marriage, kids, and life experiences (traveling! jobs! drugs! riding on the front of a truck!). I can host your party, MC your event, make everyone comfortable, and keep things moving. I can do a long (30-50ish minutes) or short set (10-15ish) to entertain you. I have no problem working totally clean if needed. I can also put together like-minded comedians for any type of show you have in mind.

March 26, 2026Appropriate and Funny!
Emily made sure her jokes matched the audience's taste and even went out of her way to add jokes that would fit the group. Her style deals with real-life occurrences that she turns into humor rather than a routine filled with insults at and about people. We had numerous points of communication where she checked in before the event to ensure we had everything we needed for her performance, and as such, it was a smashing success.
Emily is quick to respond to communication, so you won't be left hanging, wondering if she is the right fit for your group.
If you're looking for someone to create light and easy comedy, without the necessity of dropping the f-bomb every two sentences, Emily is your gal!

November 4, 2025Emily did a great job adding to our birthday brunch. She brought a fun sense of humor appropriate for the group. She is a sweet, delightful person and we would def recommend her.

February 18, 2025Emily was so easy to communicate with prior to our event. She was responsive, flexible, thorough...all the things you want from any good vendor when planning an event! But the icing on the cake was how funny she is! We had an event with older women, so we wanted to keep the jokes pretty clean. Emily was able to not only do that but still make it hilarious and enjoyable for our audience. I would recommend her 10x over to anyone considering working with her. I cannot wait to go see more of her work now knowing how funny she is!

You can expect a funny, relatable set. I'm happy and likely to tailor the set to whatever the event is, be it a birthday, baby shower, or celebration. I love talking to the crowd but I'm not a roastmaster. I curse occasionally and some material can wade into sassy/blue territory but I can also work clean. If I'm emceeing or hosting an event, I'll want to walk through with you exactly what you're looking for to give you the best experience possible. If I'm putting a show together for you, I'll make sure the comics I bring are ones I know and trust to be hilarious and professional. At the end of the day, I want this to be an easy experience for you where once you hire me you can sit back, laugh, and know that you'll have a great time.
