Mother of the Year is the debut comedy special from stand-up comedian Doug Key.
Filmed at Comedy Connection and directed by Jason Katz and Ryan Devir, Key reflects on my origin story as a child of divorced, alcoholic parents and irreverently dissects other interesting societal norms like modern dating, medical technology, and missing person posters. It’s a real coming-of-age tale.
His talent has been showcased on prominent platforms such as MTV, ABC, VH1, Comedy Central Digital, and he even had a cameo in the critically acclaimed Amazon Prime series, “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.” Recognized as one of the “Breakout Artists of 2019” by the iconic Caroline’s on Broadway. For more than a decade, Doug has been captivating audiences with his slightly irreverent yet charming dissection of personal anecdotes and contemporary society.
Doug has participated in esteemed comedy festivals, including the Boston Comedy Festival, Cape Fear Fest, Hell Yes Fest, and twice at the prestigious New York Comedy Festival. Doug has left an indelible mark as the founder of Rhode Island’s first and only comedy festival, The Rogue Island Comedy Festival. This celebrated event, held biannually in the historic city of Newport every May and October, has become a fixture in the local community and beyond, attracting top comedic talents from far and wide.
