Miss Mississippi Comedy: Red State Comics for Reproductive Justice

Comedians and pillars of the community Darby Burghard and Rachel Staton present Miss Mississippi Comedy (@missmississippicomedy), a pageant-themed stand-up, character, and drag show featuring a lineup of (mostly) gay comedians originally hailing from red states.

Lineup includes Jay Jurden, Olivia Carter, and more!

All proceeds go to If/When/How’s Repro Legal Defense Fund (@ifwhenhow).

The Repro Legal Defense Fund provides financial support for people investigated or fighting charges related to their pregnancy or abortion. Since launching in 2021, the Repro Legal Defense Fund has provided over $4.2 million in financial support to people criminalized for abortion or pregnancy outcomes. In 2025, four out of the five top states where the Repro Legal Defense Fund received applications were in the South: Alabama, South Carolina, Oklahoma, and Texas. The top states with calls to If/When/How’s Repro Legal Helpline were Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Texas.

Y'all come get rowdy with Miss Mississippi Comedy!
