March 5, International Women's Day Week

What's So Funny?

Karinda Dobbins and Dhaya Lakshminarayanan, that's what, or who. Listen to these two introspective, irreverent, "clean" funny women talk about how they make people laugh while struggling against the sexism and racism of the mainstream comedy world. What's funny? What's not? What if the audience isn't getting you? What's it like to be an Indian American from Alabama, or an African American lesbian mom who likes to make Macbeth jokes?

Karinda and Dhaya will be performing as part of two all-female shows Saturday, March 10, 2012 at The Purple Onion, 140 Columbus in San Francisco. Find out more
