I know what you're thinking: "Jessica, clearly you have done a lot of comedy shows over the past year. You are a liar and a cheat. This is not your first show! Slut!!!!" Let me explain myself... over the past year I have performed with other bands, burlesque acts, literary readings, variety shows, and even a condom fashion show. Okay, a year ago I did another comedy show with a couple bands and local comedian Shannon Day (who I heard about through a crappy guy I hooked up with through craigslist casual encounters. He's 32 but "will always be 24 at heart." He calls pizza "zahhh". I'm sure it was the patriarchy that made me stoop so low in my youth for a bit of male attention and validation. Grrroooosssss. I'm starting a riot.)
BUT THE POINT IS: On July 9th I'm performing with a bunch of other rad stand up comedians (including but not limited to Elissa Ball and Solomon Georgio) for the first time. It sort of feels like my first comedy show. It is the start to me networking with peers and developing a community around stand up comedy! I'm excited to be pushed and inspired by other comics and to play off of their energy. Yayy!!!
That's July 9th at 1012 high street at 8pm.
