Double Bill: Open Mic + Generation Wars
Fem de la Femme called, and you came…so much so that we can’t fit you all through door! Soo, we have some very exciting news for you…drum roll please… this spring we are launching – Fem de la Festival!
Fem de la Festival brings you 3 whole nights of all your favourite women comics downstairs at the Everyman. The crème de la crème of Fem de la Femme will be performing 5 utterly hilarious shows, plus some open mic mayhem on our final night.
The Fem De La Femme women comedians will be taking over downstairs at the Everyman from Thu 22 May to Sat 24 May 2025, with stalls from female led businesses too. We are also offering Find Your Funny Workshops that are open to all and a Q&A panel session for all those women trying to navigate the industry.
Open Mic, 7.45pm
An hour of comedy chaos from local comedians (sign up info to be announced) followed by…
Samantha Day: Generation Wars, 9.30pm
Multi Award Winning Comedian, Samantha Day, exposes the particular madnesses of each generation as she explores relationships, money, body image, pronouns and so much more. Are the stereotypes about boomers and millennials true? And why are Gen Z so anxious?
This show will reveal all – and make you laugh as the audience competes to prove that they are in the generation which is “most right about everything”! A huge hit in Edinburgh, and comedy festivals around the UK.
When you are born shapes you even more than your family background… And unlike any other gameshow, winning a point for your generation seems to matter to people. They want so badly to be right. But none of us is right. We are all unhinged in our own generationally-specific way and we have every reason to love each other – it’s a heart-warming and interesting conclusion after a fight every time.
“Just brilliant”
