Clean Stand-up Comedy


About Kelly Taylor

Kelly Taylor is feeling pretty comfortable with his decision to give up his mediocre career in hockey and pursue his dream. Hockey, once the only way a small town Canadian kid could get to the big city; Kelly Taylor now sees the possibilities of comedy taking him all the way to the Alberta border. With the physical attributes of a high school quarterback and the comedic commitment of Jerry Lewis, Kelly Taylor is taking the comedy world by storm. Kelly Taylor shocked the comedy industry by placing second in the prestigious Just for Laughs Homegrown competition. Competing against comics who have been in the business for many years, Kelly Taylor firmly made his mark at Just For Laughs in Montreal. His performance did not go unnoticed as creative heads from NBC Universal, Happy Gilmore Productions and Jimmy Kimmel quickly approached with interest. Aside from Just for Laughs, he has already appeared at The Halifax, Winnipeg, Vancouver and Calgary Comedy Festivals. Kelly has performed all across Canada and recently made his debut in New York City and Los Angeles.

  • “I wanted to let you know that Kelly Taylor was fantastic! We enjoyed him so much. It was just plain funny. Not offensive or rough, just funny. I don’t think we stopped laughing for the entire time. Amazing talent!” Danah H.
