Woolly Mammoth Theatre 641 D Street NW Washington, DC
Don’t miss this she-quel to last year’s Second City production at Woolly Mammoth!! Join your fellow Wildcats to howl with laughter at this all-female comedic show.
After last year’s thoroughly entertaining She the People, The Second City is returning to DC with its latest headlining production, She the People: The Resistance Continues!
This sketch comedy show is created, designed, and performed by an all-funny, all-star team of women. She the People: The Resistance Continues! satirizes the reality of being a woman in this wild world, exploding the myths and misrepresentations surrounding bachelorettes, Beyoncé, the 2020 election, and much more. The Washington Post called it a funny, fiercely political sketch-comedy show and the Chicago Tribune called it empowering entertainment.
The NU Club of DC has secured deeply-discounted group tickets – and a complimentary drink coupon with each ticket – for the evening performance of She the People: The Resistance Continues! on Thursday, December 12th.
Start the holiday season with joy and laughter as you enjoy The Second City in DC!

The Blackout Cabaret at Second City
Blanket Fort is usually a comedy variety show that takes place entirely in a blanket fort–but tonight we’re ditching the fort because Second City is letting us perform in their theater for One Night Only! Don’t worry, there will still be pillows, blankets, PJ’s and even more laughs. It’s weird, it’s comfy, it’s cuddly. It’s unlike any other comedy show you’ve been to.
Hosted and produced by: Elsie How, Brad Rickert, and Max Shanker
With performances by:
Tracie Kunzika playing the Tuba
Thick Meat Boy and the Bone Daddy doing some Improv
Standup from Alice Whatley
Tickets:
$13 Standard
$11 College Student
$7 Training Center Student

The Flatiron Arts Building
Here at Blanket Fort we try to curate and plan a hilarious and relatable comedy show with all types of weird junk. Everybody eats food. If you don’t eat food you’re a robot and that’s scary. We’ll still have you at the show but please laugh and please don’t take us over iRobot style until it’s completely over. Then you can go ahead and use us as batteries or whatever but please wait til afterwards. We’ve put too much time and energy into this show to not have one last banger before the takeover.
If you haven’t heard, we’re a comedy variety show in a giant blanket fort.
Here’s the dang lineup:
Music from Comfort Zone
Stand up from Sammy Arechar
Improv from Sad Party
Stand Up from K Francis Norris
Stand up from Austin Mooney
Banjo from Brian Lirot
Stand up from Lyn-z Harney
Hosted by Elsie How with sets from Brad Rickert and Max Shanker and DJ’d by DJ Thirst.
