Over the past decade they have presented at more than 600 venues in 40 countries, most recently headlining the 2021 New York Comedy Festival.

They are known for a distinctive performance style that integrates poetry, comedy and lecture to explore themes of trauma, belonging and the human condition.
“Some of my favorite comedians are Black, Indigenous, people of color and trans people because we know that humor is not about levity.

n a world that’s committed to making your life miserable, there’s something audacious and beautiful about insisting on maintaining your humor and your delight.”
