Hiiii,

Wow, it crazy out here. Good news is, you can see me back at good ole UCB - Upright Citizens Brigade. I’m in a show call The Assignment - it’s a cool monthly show where people try out new, experimental improv forms with a rotating cast. I’m thrilled to join for a form called “The Flashlight” - tickets are $10 for in person and livestream so come on out on Thursday April 10th at 8:30pm

Also, for TableTopNotch - the weekly Dnd show I’m on - we are finally back in our main, gritty western campaign “Brunkhollow”, after taking a break to do a silly time travel themed show. If you are interested in some Deadwood inspired Dungeons and Dragons, this will scratch that very specific itch.

That’s it for updates - remember to help your neighbors.

talk soon,

Deirdre

Hey everyone!

It’s that time again - I’ve got another show for The Bisque on March 19th at 7pm! Actually, the fun news is we are booked for a quarterly show at Caveat, so hopefully this will help us build a regular audience of comedy fans who want to support The Brigid Alliance. Early bird tickets are available through March 12th and the show will be live-streamed! If you buy a livestream ticket, you get a video on demand link, so you can watch the show for a whole week after. If you say to me “I’m not available on the 19th!”, I’ll be like, “all good, you don’t have to be!”

What I’m saying is there are no excuses not to buy a cheeky lil ticket to support abortion access <3

Also, a little belated, but for Valentine’s Day, No Worries If No and GOLD Comedy partnered with nonprofit Project Sleep! We made a funny little ad for CPAP machines that I shot and edited - check it out.

See ya soon,

Pumpkins,

Happy New Year! Sending strength to my LA friends. This is horrible - if you can support mutual aid or the LAFD (their funding got cut…) there’s obviously a lot of need.

No easy way to transition out of that.

So I won't try. Next Tuesday, I’m doing a show at Caveat Comedian Traitors. If you’ve seen the show on Peacock (with Alan Cumming hosting) then you get the concept! If you haven’t watched, you really should cuz it’s so fun.

Livestream (with a VOD) tickets are available if you aren’t in town and/or can’t watch live, and if you are in town, it’s the 14th at 9:30pm. Hope to see you there!

I wrote a Great British Bake Off sketch with No Worries If Not. It’s my pride and joy and I’ve pitched it for years as a bit. The girls finally called my bluff <3

See you next month - love and peace to all

Hey gang,

I know everyone is busy this holiday season so I’ll keep it short and snappy.

Big news is - The Bisque is back! I know, it’s December, it’s cold, you have 1 million things to do. Improv is not on your list of things to see. BUT we have livestream tickets which you can watch ON DEMAND for a whole week after the show. Tickets are here and the show is Monday 12/16 at 9:30pm (I know, which is why the livestream sounds good!)

If you are in town, early bird tickets are on sale until 12/9 and then the price goes up. Still, all proceeds go to The Brigid Alliance. On this Giving Tuesday, where a billion people are asking for money, I’m asking you to see a comedy show that just happens to be helping an amazing cause. I'm stopping myself from saying "now more than ever" but...you know...

And finally, a new No Worries If Not Video has dropped. It’s come to my attention, that people have trouble recognizing me in sketches. I’m the one with a pencilled on mustache.

Hugs and Happy Holidays to you all. Be good to each other,

D
(told you I’d keep it snappy)
