Mandy Nolan is the accidental cult leader of angry funny women and the Cranky Women’s Comedy Club is her cult! Join her for a full day course on how to turn your frown into a grin, with the Cranky Women's Comedy Course, with follow-up mentoring to get you ready for your very own comedy slot at the WOW Cairns Festival on Saturday 12 September!  

During the workshop participants are encouraged to find the humour in some of their most confronting life experiences. Working on jokes in a collaborative way that is also therapeutic. The issues confronting women as they grow older are no joke, but that does not mean they are off limits for comedy.  Mandy reckons comedy is a "delivery system" for truth, allowing women to turn personal frustration or rage into resilience. 

An industry veteran and WOW Australia audience favourite, Mandy dreamed up the program tailored specifically for perimenopausal, menopausal, or postmenopausal women; but hey if you’re ‘an angry young woman’, trans or non-binary person, you too are welcome here to share your rage and find your funny (in a world gone to sh*t) with us. 

Please ensure you are available for all engagements: Pre-Festival workshop, mentoring, rehearsal and performance
