ABOUT NOLA BRADLEY

Nola Bradley is an LA native, who now calls herself home in Oakland, CA. Her comedy is wickedly insightful about her absurdist journeys through transgender discovery, sexuality, addictions and mental illness. With the acerbicness of Wanda Sykes and the intimacy of Neal Brennan, she’s unsparing yet vulnerable about ridiculous trans stereotypes and our bleak political climate - while roasting her own self-absorbtion too. Nola is a thought provoking, generationally talented comedienne, but never too high brow for a girldick joke. Nola has graced so many stages, from Cobb’s Comedy Club in San Francisco, to being named a finalist at the 2026 NW Black Comedy Festival in Portland.

ABOUT THE SHOW - LIVE TAPING!

Brick: 1) a blunt object made of clay used for construction and building of structures. 2) a derogatory term used for trans women who don’t pass as cis

Nola Bradley is filming her debut comedy special “Brick By Brick” live at The Function. Two shows for one price!
