(About Us)
At Laughter On Call, we believe in the power of comedy to help bring people together – especially in tough circumstances. Our hilarious and compassionate team members are focused on helping people enjoy a better quality of life.
Dani Klein Modisett founded Laughter On Call after seeing first-hand her mother who has Alzheimer’s benefit from comedy care. Dani has been working as a comedian for over 20 years. With her shows, books and teaching, she has brought laughter to the biggest changes and challenges in our lives—marriage, parenting and now senior care. Learn more about Dani.
The Laughter On Call Team is made up of experienced comedians, eager to provide hope, one laugh at a time. Each professionally-trained comedian on our team brings his or her unique talents to working with seniors with dementia and other mental challenges. For the team, it’s an opportunity to share a craft we love in a way that truly helps and to build deep, one-on-one relationships with our seniors and all of our clients in need of laughter. Meet some members of the Laughter On Call Team.
MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER
“Three years ago, my mother’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis was getting the better of her. Depressed, withdrawn and barely eating, I did the only thing I know to do in dire circumstances, I called a comedian. She showed up, pulled up a chair and quickly had my mother laughing. She began seeing her regularly and it changed the quality of my mother’s life. She began eating again, singing and of course, laughing. Laughter On Call would like to do the same for your loved one.”
