"The Clitoris Act" on tour | 2ND SHOW BERLIN

"The Clitoris Act or 2 cis 30-somethings and their obnoxious views about the perils of patriarchy” is a 1-hour theatrical comedy show by Mari Volar (EST) and Anshita Koul (IND).

Women – in an ideal world, we are them, we are birthed by them and we love them. But we don’t live in an ideal world, do we?

Clit Comedy Club creators Anshita and Mari sit, stand and dance around topics like what it’s like to take up space as a woman in this weird and dysfunctional world we’re in, how it feels to live in a country that isn’t yours, why catcalling is annoying but sometimes surprisingly refreshing, what it’s like to be surrounded by baby-making machines and how to properly lodge complaints with the Patriarchy.

Women, bodies, dating, intimacy, weight, beauty and societal expectations - nothing is off limits in this 2-woman special.

Prepare to be entertained, surprised, lectured and shocked - all in totally bad, bad, bad taste! Leave your Spanx at home and bring everyone you know with you - you’ll have loads to talk about later!

“The Clitoris Act” premiered at the Hundertpro festival in 2021 and has since then entertained, educated and radicalized sold-out audiences across Germany, Luxembourg, Estonia and Belgium. In March 2023 it is going on the road once again to Berlin, Prague, Brno, Budapest and Vienna.

This show is in English and recommended for audiences aged 18+ (but open to minors at guardian’s discretion). For venue restrictions, please visit their homepage. The show contains crude language, loud music and adult themes.

About the performers:

36, Queer, Indian, Married, does not want a child and a standup comedian by profesion – Anshita is the poster child of everything heteronormative patriarchy hates, but don’t worry, she hates it back way more.

Anshita was last seen on Indian Reality TV Standup Show – Queens of Comedy (2017) and was most recently a Funny Women Stage Awards 22 Finalist in the UK. She is the co-founder of Clit Comedy Club, Festrogen Comedy Festival Luxembourg and is currently on tour all over Europe and UK, with her solo hour in English – Little Too Much.

Mari Volar (she/her) is an international comedian, comedy producer and musician from Estonia. Having been kicked out of her pretty, yet introverted homeland for being too opinionated, unattractive and loud, she’s been in very public hiding in Cologne, Germany since 2019 and performs internationally across Europe.

She’s a frequent feature in English comedy show line-ups across Germany, but her comedic timing and surprising amount of Eastern European charm have also received attention and praise in The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and Czech Republic.

Mari is the creator of Clit Comedy Club, co-creator of Festrogen Festival and Random Things Comedy and is currently putting finishing touches on her first solo hour "31".
