Antwerp's FIRST All-Female Comedy Night...The F-Word!
Wednesday 21. January
Doors open at 7.30pm. Show starts at 8pm.
De Groene Waterman, Antwerpen
Presenting the first EVER female Comedy Night in Antwerp! Hosted by character-comedian, Kym Nelson who has hosted many sold out female comedy nights in Brussels (one even selling out within 48 hours and reported on in the Brussels Times!)
She'll be joined by some of the funniest rising female comedians on the comedy circuit, including a therapist and a former dominatrix - how's that for diversity!
With the comedy world known to be masculine and most well-known comedians being male, we thought it was about time for an all-female line-up. Expect to be entertained and inspired by some seriously funny women!
And yes, the men can watch - they are more than welcome and see the myth destroyed that women can't be funny!
Venue: De Groene Waterman Bookstore (in the Comedy Cellar)
Doors open: 7.30pm
Show starts: 8pm
The F-Word Line-Up:
Host: Kym Nelson (English) @kym_comedyplayground
Kym is a character comedian hailed by a theatre critic as "a great and relatable storyteller." She has written and performed two acclaimed solo shows, appears regularly at comedy clubs and festivals-including the Edinburgh Fringe-and teaches comedy across the UK and Belgium. Her work also extends beyond the stage, helping professionals bring humour, confidence, and connection into the workplace.
Headliner: Sally Porter (English) @the69erscomedy
Ex Dominatrix Sally Porter gives her hilarious accounts of working in a dungeon. Her clients ranged from bricklayers to Members of Parliament to Hollywood film stars. From mishaps to mayhem, she tells the tales of the antics that she and her clients were up to in the realms of BDSM.
Katrien Vandepitte (Belgian) Katrien_Vandepitte_comedy
Katrien Is a full-time psychologist which makes her comedy even more interesting! She grew up on a farm where she mastered practical skills like herding sheep and fixing fences. Katrien’s material blends down-to-earth farm life with today’s everyday chaos, proving you can take the girl off the farm… but never the farm out of the girl.
Pearl (English) @rock_bottomed_girl
Pearl is a songwriter, bassist, and performance poet who, like Cher and Madonna, prefers to be known just by her first name. She incorporates a surreal heady mix of poetry, erotica, slapstick, musical jingles and slick licks to tell her story. Now, when she’s not doing standup comedy, you can catch her with her bass guitar as one half of the comedy music duo Lucille and Pearl.
Fidan Yagubova (Turkey)
Fidan moved from Istanbul to Gent four years ago where she did her first stand-up comedy and instantly fell in love with it. She now turns her experiences of growing up between Azerbaijan and Turkey into sharp, personal jokes, exploring identity, belonging, and her complicated feelings about the Soviet Union, one punchline at a time.
