Overview
When Janet McNamara takes the stage, everyone wants to know more. From the first word, audiences are treated to an original perspective and an awkward energy that captivates undergrad hipsters and suburban housewives, sometimes at the same show (usually around Christmas).
As an accountant with townie charm and no time for BS, Janet has opened for some of the biggest names in comedy and won a loyal fanbase of her own across New England.
So if you’re looking for razor-sharp jokes delivered with a plainspoken flair, Janet will tell you to get a better hobby. But also she does that.

We attended Girls Rule the Mic with comedian Janet McNamara at The Sea Crest Hotel on Cape Cod. That was our first time seeing Janet and certainly not our last! A night out with Janet and her riotous comedy is a night best spent on the comedy scene. Our only regret is that Johnny Carson and the Tonight Show a d David Letterman are gone (aging ourselves here, for sure!). If either had the chance to see Janet McNamara, they would have booked her immediately and she would now be a famous household name. SO original. Brilliant timing. Her moments of silence are as hysterical as her words and expressions. Janet’s comic delivery is phenomenal! She had the entire room killing themselves laughing the entire time. We don’t stop talking (and laughing) about her for days after her shows. We often repeat her comic lines in our lives and just laugh! We absolutely love Janet McNamara and you will too. Her shows are amazing! Thank you for the opportunity to submit this review. Go experience Janet McNamara, you’ll enjoy and love her and like us, will be looking forward to her next shows!! 🥇
