In Laughing Color: For Queerky Folks Who Considered the Mic When Comedy Central Wasn't Enuf
Announcing DC's comedy event of the season!
In Laughing Color (ILC) is a comedy show that puts "life affirming" stand-up and storytelling by queer comics of color on center stage.
"Life affirming comedy" is more creative than tropes about racial and gender differences. Much better than mean-spirited ridicule of bodies or desires. Much funnier than making light of violence in relationships, at work, or by the state. ILC don't play that! We like our art--our lives, our ideas, our politics--y'know, funny stuff for everybody.
ILC will debut over half a dozen queer, comedic performers of color who have workshopped their material for six weeks under close comedic tutelage. Along with our premieres, we welcome two well-known comics of conscience: show host, Chelsea Shorte, and special guest, Curt Mariah!
Join us for a night as fierce as "The Fly Girls" and as refreshing as Ntozake Shange's choreopoem! Tickets also will be available at the door ($10).
See y'all there!
