Jen Grant, Christina Walkinshaw, and Erica Sigurdson are funny women with impressive resumes. Their Tuesday, March 7 performance in Saskatoon promises to blend women’s issues with humour and an edge.

Jen Grant has performed at the Just for Laughs Festival, the Halifax Comedy Festival, and the Winnipeg Comedy Festival. She can also be heard on CBC‘s “The Debaters” and has her own TV special on The Comedy Network. One of her proudest moments was performing for the troops in the Middle East. From topics such as her cool mom to dating a younger man to her love of naps, she will have you laughing until you’re crying.
Christina Walkinshaw is a stand-up comic living in Toronto. Her half hour comedy special often runs in the middle of the night while you’re sleeping. You’ve seen her on Just For Laughs, the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, and at the liquor store, and she is a regular on CBC’s “The Debaters.” She is an active blogger who blends humour with women’s issues.
