Cost:

Free – CHF25

Join us for an evening of fun and laughter at Funny Women Zurich at GLEIS.

Doors open at 19h30 – Show starts at 20h00

What to expect : 

– A comedy show in English 

– A female (with a twist) line-up 

– An Open Mic 

What better way to close off your Tuesday than having fun AND supporting a great movement AT THE SAME TIME (I know, insane, right ?) 

If the booze gives you courage, you could come up on stage and be our next rising star (yes, YOU!) – but only if you want to, don’t worry. 

If you are still not convinced, know that the event is donation-based! (Now you have to be convinced, right? Right?!)
