“Dat girl sho is funny” is not just packed with "belly busting" humour, it is a complete package of human experience, creativity and raw talent. The show has been and still continues to be an outlet and a definite source of inspiration for many black womyn like myself. It creates an environment where you can let loose, relax and enjoy humour in a very diverse and sophisticated way … you’ve never experienced comedy this way before!!”

'dat girl 'sho is funny!! Going three years strong! Packing houses! And receiving great reviews! Canada's first urban womyn's comedy festival. A comedy festival for womyn of colour / Spoken word artists and others who walk the line of marginalization.
This is the only place to find in one night a black lesbian comic, an Asian spoken word artist, a Jamaican dub poet, and a South Asian comic from Miami! We have everyone, but they all got to be funny!!! 'dat girl sho is funny is my multicultural gift and birth to the world. Yes we can all get along!!!
Because I am tired of tokenism in comedy!
Tired of all white audiences!
Tired of having only one white womyn on a comedy bill on any given night in Toronto!
Tired of having to water down my material, so "they" can understand!
Tired of doing polite comedy!
Tired of not being able to do yard, island and urban comedy!
'dat girl sho is a comedy festival not for the weak hearted or the politically correct.
This comedy festival will have you rolling out of your chair and yelling "You go girl!!"
