Comedian Bethany Van Delft is a key player in the Boston standup renaissance.

Funny Story

IF YOU TOOK A TRIP to the heart of the comedy zeitgeist, where razor-sharp wit meets soft-edged empathy, you’d find Boston standup Bethany Van Delft. A natural gift for laid-back storytelling, combined with the unique perspective of her Dutch-Puerto Rican roots and her cool finesse with observational gags, has placed her at a sweet spot within the modern business of merriment.

Plugged directly into the new Boston groundswell of brewery-night indie comedy, and skilled as both a host and a star turn for The Moth (the acclaimed live yarn-spinning hub on radio and podcast), Van Delft is as hot and fresh as artisanal bread, but much funnier. And, as she tells Where Boston, it all started with a gauntlet thrown down by her shrink.
