Women Who Kick Comedy Butt's Comedian Bio
|
| Bio | Women Who Kick Comedy Butt (WWKCB) is an all-female stand-up comedy show featuring very different comics with very different acts.
The brainchild of comedian Grace White, WWKCB was conceived to spotlight funny women. "This is not a girly girl show, Hot Mommies or Women Who Tell Jokes Who Have Bosoms. This is a show boasting talented female comics doing their own act," says White.
Each comic in her own unique way will show how now more than ever, women have come into their own onstage. No longer restricted to voicing vanilla views on love and marriage, these bright women offer more flavors than Baskin-Robbins, and represent all ages, ethnicities, and cultural backgrounds. They will be telling their tales for all to hear, guaranteeing a laugh-fest you really don't want to miss. This show welcomes everyone to enjoy a great night out with comedy that's power-packed, high-energy and hysterical.
Comedian Grace White, WWKCB Producer
GRACE WHITE, aka That Old Hippie Chick, is a classic bohemian with a mother who stalks her, a father to whom road rage is an art-form and a stand-up comedy act like no other. White launched her comedy career at the onset of her "Middle Ages," and has gone on to open for the Jefferson Starship, 3 Doors Down, Edgar Winter, Leon Russell, Father Guido Sarducci, and Kevin Pollack. She made her film debut in "The Independent," starring Jerry Stiller and Janeane Garofalo and has appeared on "Good Morning America."
White is a symphony in contradictions, a blur of reluctant energy and a compulsive workaholic entrepreneur who stubbornly maintains her title of World's Laziest Woman. She's also a successful single parent (her daughter's never been to jail), and has earned a solid reputation for herding aspiring comedians through their performing puberty. That Old Hippie Chick may not be the last of her tribe, but she is surely one of the most entertaining.
