Daisy Tackett is a stand-up comedian in Jacksonville, Florida
about
i am a comedian, sturdy broad, and Florida Woman hailing from Jacksonville, FL. i’m a four-time winner of Best Comedian in Jacksonville, and i explore feminism, body image, dating, and politics through a darkly comedic lens. i'll tackle important topics ranging from rape culture and sexual assault to the alarming lack of a fat bachelorette. ABC, i *am* available.
i’ve performed at Gotham, St. Mark’s, and Greenwich Village Comedy Clubs in NYC, Zanies in Nashville, TN, Sing Out Loud Festival in St. Augustine, FL, and the Comedy Zone in the Ramada Inn in Jacksonville. i was also briefly banned from the Comedy Zone in the Ramada Inn in Jacksonville. but what i really love are the many backyards, living rooms, record stores, vegan bars, and skate shops where she’s gotten to produce, host, and perform.
i produce and host a number of shows, including Tightrope, a monthly experimental open mic, and Funhouse, which brings local comedy and local music together. i’m also the Jacksonville Don't Tell Comedy producer and produce local alt shows with Worst Coast Comedy.
when i’m not doing comedy, i’m endlessly toiling to survive under late-stage capitalism/pay my dog’s vet bills because he stepped on a rock and acted like he broke his paw, and then the vet said, “Oh no, he’s just being dramatic,” and then charged me $200. Or playing video games.
follow Worst Coast Comedy on Facebook and Instagram for updated showtimes and tickets to our regular shows, and subscribe to the Don't Tell Comedy email list for when we announce new secret shows around town.
she's award-winning

*i also was on the Big 12 All-Rookie Academic Team, but that feels less relevant here. i was also voted "best randy impression" by my fellow patients at an intensive outpatient program (randy was a very odd man with a distinctive voice) (yes i have some jokes about randy)
