the kates

the kates are back. Are you turkeys ready for the kates 2.0?!

Featuring lineups of fab women, non-binary legends, and hilarious “soft” artists with unique fem perspectives, the kates brings high-energy comedy and storytelling that will leave you laughing, inspired, and jazzed to take on the project that is 2025, one punch (line) at a time.

This is more than a comedy show—it’s a dang movement. From up-and-coming stand-up voices to seasoned comedy vets, the kates is a space where underrepresented voices power up and everyone’s laughter belongs. Don’t miss your chance to experience this iconic (17-year-old!) showcase that celebrates feminine joy, curiosity, and the rebellious, jokester spirit in us all. Get your tickets now and join the kates for an unforgettable night of community, comedy, and don’t forget…high kicks!
