Keener Dougherty

Wherever you go on the Winnipeg comedy circuit, “Keener” is certain to be a known name, due to his many performances as a stand-up comic and comedy show host (and extensive collection of trademark shirts that say 'KEENER' on the front).

Keener Dougherty has been performing stand-up comedy for the past three years. Last summer, he hosted Winnipeg's “Sherbrook Street Festival” on the outdoor stage, and made his theatrical début appearing the 2008 Winnipeg Fringe Festival production of “HEY ABBOTT! - A Classic Comedy Tribute Show” with Chase & Hamill.

Keener is a regular performer in the Tuesday Night Comedy Series ongoing at the King's Head Pub, in which he has performed stand-up comedy, solo alternative comedy in Ryan McMahon's “Comedy Loser”, and occasional sketch comedy cameos with Chase & Hamill.
