Bad Assery: The Women and Comedy Conference

You can see it in the existence of the term comedienne, a qualifier for a profession that we have been told is inherently male. Because of this "fact", women have allowed the art they create and the validity of their careers to be filtered through the male perspective. It's like trying to see yourself in the mirror while wearing someone else's glasses. It just doesn't work. We are changing the conversation from us vs. them to me vs. me.

Bad Assery: The Women and Comedy Conference will be kicking off this epic 3-day event at beautiful littlefield. Come drink, celebrate, learn, create and having a helluva good time.
