What is IndigE-girl Comedy
IndigE-girl Comedy is a network of Indigenous female comedians across Canada and provides development opportunities for Indigenous women in comedy. In 2021, IndigE-girl Comedy started as a response to a lack of representation of Indigenous women in the comedy circuit. Since then, IndigE-girl has hosted six sold out shows in Vancouver, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Whitehorse, and Toronto. IndigE-girl has lead to more Indigenous women producing comedy shows.
