Ladies of Laughter®

Ladies of Laughter® is an organization and national competition dedicated to providing a platform for female comedians to showcase their unique humor, jumpstart their careers, and promote women in the comedy industry. Often referred to as a "career builder for women in comedy," it was originally created as a tribute to comedian Mary Jo Wobker.

Since 2012, its national Funny and Fabulous Tour has visited legendary theaters across America with the finest talent from the national competition. Past contestants include Amy Schumer, Tammy Pescatelli, Melissa Rauch (“Big Bang Theory”) and countless others. The initiative has expanded to include specialized
categories, such as the "Newcomer" award, and has adapted to include virtual competitions and global open mics.

The Ladies of Laughter® tour is coming to Orcas with two comics: Kelly MacFarland and Leighann Lord.
