Help Us Build DC’s Woman-Owned Comedy Club ✨

We’re launching a comedy club pop up on April 4th! Vintage vibes and hilariousness.

Less than 15% of comedy clubs in the US are owned by women, and we don't like that. With comedy at the forefront of narrative-building these days, isn't it about time we had a fully woman-owned sustainable comedy club in DC?

This is a woman-owned and run comedy club, starting as a POP-UP SERIES and growing into a permanent home for smart, stylish, high-quality comedy. Comedians of all genders will be showcased, and we'll have music, dance, and more. All that brings joy to our audience.

This is NOT charity. This is you helping seed a bold, beautiful idea and bringing a fresh creative space to a city where comedy is more important than ever.

Think vintage vibes, comedy with a touch of class, and a room that invites you to dress up, step out, and be transported. Picture a 1950s-inspired atmosphere à la The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (ish)— warm lighting, feminine touches, intentional design, and a sense that something special is about to happen the moment you walk in.

Your support helps us:

Launch pop-up comedy nights that feel curated, elevated, and electric

Pay comedians and staff fairly from day one - as we always do

Create a welcoming, inclusive space for performers and audiences alike

Build proof of concept so we can secure a long-term home in DC

This club is about more than laughs — it’s about connection. A place where comedy meets elegance, where community gathers, and where people feel encouraged to show up as their boldest, funniest, most confident selves.

Pop-ups let us build intentionally: testing the vibe, growing the audience, and shaping a club that truly belongs to DC. Every contribution brings us closer to a permanent space where comedians can take creative risks and audiences know they’re in for something unforgettable.

If you believe DC deserves a comedy club that’s fully woman-owned, vintage-inspired, inclusive, and just a little glamorous — we’d love for you to be part of the beginning.

Thanks for believing in laughter, live performance, and a very good idea.

UPDATE: April 5th:

Thank you all those who donated!

We had an excellent sold-out show on U Street NW on April 4th, and will announce the next one and more exciting news soon!

Thanks to your generous support, we were able to offset set-up costs, marketing, branding, purchase decor, book great comedians and guest musicians, and secure a great DC venue. We are still building and will announce the next show date soon. Please keep spreading the word to keep this unique pop-up concept going and to eventually becoming a long-term comedy club.
