Maggie Maye

Maggie Maye loves candy.
She also loves performing comedy.
She’s performed stand up in festivals such as Bridgetown Comedy Festival, FunFunFun Fest, Moontower Comedy & Oddity Festival, and the All Jane No Dick Comedy Festival.
She’s opened for Godfrey, Paul Mooney, and Earth, Wind and Fire.
She’s had her name in comedy articles in the Huffington Post, LaughSpin, the New York Times, and the Portland Mercury.
Her comedy is described in the same way she is: sassy, charming, and smart.
Also, a 6-year-old once told her she was the funniest person ever. And kids rarely lie.
She'd call herself a thought provocateur, but that sounds douchy.
