With razor-sharp wit and a charm once described as “ineffable,” Tooky (rhymes with cookie) Kavanagh (no “U”) speaks her mind with honesty, charisma, and edge.

She headlines shows all around New England and has opened for a slew of prominent national acts including Hanna Einbinder (HBO Max’s Hacks), Matteo Lane (The Advice Special series on YouTube), Maria Bamford (Lady Dynamite on Netflix), and Dave Attell (Insomniac on Comedy Central).

Her additional stand-up credits include: The Rogue Island Comedy Festival; Comic-In-Residence at The Comedy Studio; HBO’s Women In Comedy Festival; The Boston Comedy Festival.

Her most recent turn at acting was co-starring in Salesmen (available now on Amazon Prime Video), as well as appearing in a few shorts for the 48 Hour Film Festival. Her current favorite side project is co-hosting the Total Dad Movies podcast, which is available on Apple Podcasts and all other streaming platforms

She regularly performs at Boston-Based institutions such as LaughBoston, The Wilbur theater, Nick’s Comedy Stop, and The Comedy Studio.
Also, she's the one who described her own charm as “ineffable,” but it's still true!
