Detroit Women of Comedy Festival 2024 | SATURDAY | Ant Hall 7PM

Join us Saturday, 7PM at ANT HALL and enjoy the comedic stylings of:

Patty Rooney (she/her)— STAND-UP

Patty Rooney is a Detroit area comedian, filmmaker, and recovering people pleaser. Her self-effacing humor draws from years of taking herself too seriously, her quirky family, and the struggles of being a modern woman. She’s recently shared a stage with SNL’s Alex English and Comedian Dave Hill. Rooney’s sketch comedy videos have been featured on WhoHaHa and you can catch her improv troupe’s smash hit "Big Fun M**der" at this year’s Traverse City Comedy Festival.

And Still I Improvise — IMPROV

This incredible trio —Tam White (She/her), Ce'Ann Yates (She/her), and Nikchol Atkins (She/her) — perform short-form games and improv acts in their signature style fun, high-energy, and interactive as they perform short-form games and acts for audiences. They have been seen at Go Comedy Improv Theatre, Ant Hall, and Planet Ant's Black Box. Their act includes dancing, character work, music, and freestyle rap.

The Four Horsewomen — IMPROV

The Four Horsewomen have over 100 years of comedic improv experience between them. They currently perform their unique brand of upbeat, weird, physical, mono-scenic improv all over Chicago. After performing individually for the last 20 years to audiences at places like The Second City Mainstage and e.t.c. resident stages, iO Chicago, and The Annoyance they've come together to form a supergroup of women of a certain age who DNGAF and are guaranteed to make you laugh (and probably pee a little).
