Tara Brown

As a performer of clean and family-friendly comedy, I can perform in front of any audience. In fact, I produce and host quarterly family-friendly comedy shows in Charlotte, North Carolina; and it is the only comedy show in the area that is 100% family-friendly.

In addition, as a woman of a certain age, my comedy resonates with Gex X'ers and Baby Boomers.

My comedy is observational and self-deprecating, but in a fun and humorous way. I connect with audiences in a very personal way; and, it is always a thrill to talk to people after a show and have them tell me that they could relate to everything I said. That never gets old!
