Your next favorite artist is right here in Greater Boston. WBUR keeps its finger on the pulse of Boston's diverse and lively arts and culture scene on-air, online and now on stage. Join us for “Ones to Watch: Boston’s Emerging Artists,” a four-part series featuring up-and-coming artists across an array of genres: dance, comedy, film, theater and more.
Join us for an evening of comedy with four of Boston’s up and coming performers: Kristina Feliciano, El Kennedy, Uzair Malik and Mary Spadaro. They may not be household names YET, but each has a unique style and hilarious delivery that bode well for future fame.
Bethany Van Delft, host of The Moth StorySLAM and crowned Boston Magazine’s Best Comedian two years in a row, will emcee the evening.

Maryland native El Kennedy hones her comedic wit in Boston performing at The Mendoza Line, Nick’s Comedy Stop, and with Men in Comedy, the latter of which she also serves as producer. Her comedy leaves audiences thinking, "There’s no way this broad was married.”
