As a trans guy comedian this situation is even crazier for me.
I’ll get booked as the ‘one woman’ and then have to disappoint them or I’ll get booked to an all man line up an be paraded as accidental diversity.
And had an agent go ‘we already have a trans woman so we’re good.’
saying “certain professions naturally have gender imbalances” about stand-up comedy is insane. and why do you think there’s a gender imbalance? because many comedy clubs are male-dominant and are misogynistic just like this statement. the comedy industry simply has to do better

@characterflaw_@PoliceCops_ Identity Theft from @StolenTable. Agnes Carrington's ensemble did a good debut last year with an absurdist play: some top-notch clowning on display here - just don't expect the plot to make any sense.

Most promising debut of 2023. Second place I am awarding jointly to two clowning-heavy acts seen at Brighton Fringe: @StolenTable's Lost Play of Barry Wayworm and @metrictheatre's Chekhov's Gun. Clowning is harder than it looks, lots of potential from both https://t.co/mOCDzaYETE
I'm now catching up with the honourable mentions from Brighton Fringe.
Featuring
* @StolenTable The Lost Play of Barry Wayworm
