We’re rewriting the rules on who gets the mic and what stories get told — and trust us, nothing’s off-limits.Our show is an hour of empowerment that celebrates femininity in all its shapes and forms, with a five-woman lineup of international comedians, and diverse set of voices working in harmony to fill the room with laughter.What to expect: - A killer, diverse lineup of comics bringing fresh perspectives and unapologetic punchlines
- Zero cheap shots at anyone’s identity — just smart, sharp, side-splitting comedy
- A night to rock out, throw your bra out, and laugh until your eyeliner runsIf your ex couldn’t handle it and your boss shouldn’t hear it… it’s probably in the set list. in a safe space where you can show up as yourself, sit up front, and laugh like you mean it.What the Press is Saying:"One of the things the evening showed me was comedy’s crucial, multi-faceted role in today’s world. In some way, it’s a salve to let your worries melt away, but it’s also a medium that broaches complex and relevant topics regular conversation can’t." – Lifestyle Asia"The response to B*tches in Stitches has been overwhelmingly positive, especially among comedians who felt they were ostracized from the scene." – Rolling Stone "B*tches in Stitches sees a good laugh as an entry point for social critique: the equivalent of wrapping a pill in bacon and feeding it to your dog. At the end of the day, the Bitches know that their ultimate ambition of changing the world through comedy is a bit lofty. But they won’t stop trying." – Spot.ph "The venue was buzzing even before the first act took the stage — a cosy, packed room full of laughter, anticipation, and that slightly electric sense that something special was about to happen... By the end of the night, my face ached from smiling. Bitches in Stitches is exactly what the UK comedy scene needs right now — inclusive, fearless, feminist fun that’s genuinely funny. I can’t wait to see what comes next for this global sisterhood of humour." — Joyzine.org
