Last week NY-based comedian Jennifer Dziura posted to Creative DC:
I’m a comedian with a solo show, “What Philosophy Majors Do After College,” coming to DC on tour for the first time (along with burlesque performer/author Molly Crabapple) and I found your blog searching for signs of awesomeness down south…
She had me at “I’m.”
In all seriousness – her show looks very cool:
In her hour-plus solo show, Jen starts off with “The History of Western Philosophy in Fifteen Minutes,” and then expounds comedically on what one does with a degree in philosophy. In her case, stints as an art school model, a professional contraceptive tester, a failed dot-com entrepreneur, and finally, a comedian telling grammar jokes in Wonder Woman underpants.
Ironically, I’ll be in NY next week, so I won’t be able to make it – but you should check it out:
