Rules were meant to be broken, right? Mary Jane French and Sarah Mowrey created FEMMES THE RULES to flip conventions for an evening of light-hearted ribbing among comedy pals. So how exactly does the show work? Male comedians are paired with female or non-binary comics. During the male comedian’s set, his copart is free to interrupt him at will with commentary, riffs, and arbitrary, fist-free jabs. When the guy’s set is done, the woman does her own set with just crickets chirping from the guy’s end. Make sense? I thought it would. This month’s show (Monday, Oct 14) features pairs:
Brandie Posey & Rivers Langley
Barbara Gray & Jeff Wattenhofer
Tess Barker & Scott Luhrs
Hosted by Mary Jane French (Thrillist) and Sarah Mowrey (The Drop Comedy Club)
This should be one heck of a memorable show! Be there!
Mentions: Show 8pm. Tickets $5. The Lyric Hyperion Theater & Cafe is located at 2106 Hyperion Avenue.
