DIANA WORTHAM THEATRE
Laugh out loud with this season-opening stand-up, who proudly hails from an era when rocks were pets, carpets were shag and bicycle seats were bananas. Stealing the spotlight — for once — from the boomers, zoomers and avocado-loving millennials, this Gen X comedian is here to show her “forgotten generation” some laughter and love, delivering wry observational humor through the perceptive eye of a wife and mother, tempered with a dash of Southern charm.

Providing much-needed comic relief from election season mania, this cathartic political lampoon leaves no politician safe from its witty antics, with rapid-fire comedy that puts the "mock" in democracy. This season’s hilarious new production stems from the same comedic masterminds that created the past-season fanfavorite Capitol Steps, founded by a group of Senate staffers to satirize the very people and places that employed them.
