Emily Holden
Atlanta-based stand-up comedian, host and entertainer who started stand-up at 42 after decades of improv (founder of Atlanta's Village Theatre).

Tours nationally with Moms Unhinged; weekend regular at Laughing Skull and Alley Stage; hosts and features at Punchline and Helium in Atlanta; produces the monthly Banjo Lounge show in Avondale Estates.
