In the spirit of International Women’s Day, this show is paired with our current exhibit called “Stereotype Smash”: which is a dynamic display of over three dozen diverse pieces that take a stand against stereotypes. “Stereotype Smash” will be open from 6:00pm to 7:30pm in the Gallery for viewing; and, admission is included with your ticket.

Headliner MARTHA CHAVEZ is an award-winning comedian, writer, and actor who describes herself as the "most famous Nicaraguan-Canadian LGBTQ+ stand-up comedian in the world," but despite being an act of such a unique nature, she’s hilariously relatable, universally funny, and accessible.

She has appeared multiple times at the prestigious Just For Laughs Festival, the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, and tours coast-to-coast as a headliner for Yuk-Yuk’s. She can frequently be heard on CBC's The Debaters, Laugh Out Loud, and Because News.

MC LAURIE ELLIOTT is a stand-up comic, actor, and television writer. She is a winner of the Tim Sims Encouragement Fund Award and is a four-time winner of Best Female Stand Up at The Canadian Comedy Awards.
