The people’s alternative to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner - a comedy show fundraiser to save the planet, produced by Climate Defiance and Grassroots Comedy.
The Festival Center, 1640 Columbia Rd NW, Washington, DC
April 25th // 8pm Happy Hour // 9pm Show
The People's Correspondents' Comedy Show.
The planet is on fire, but don’t worry, we’ve solved it by repealing the 2009 greenhouse gas endangerment finding, the largest deregulation in U.S. history. If you don’t track emissions, they technically don’t exist. Meanwhile, the White House Correspondence Dinner will be underway, where the folks fueling the crisis gather to celebrate… this year with a mind reader, because apparently even the jokes tapped out.
Grassroots Comedy and Climate Defiance have seen enough, which is why we’re teaming up to host The People’s Correspondents' Comedy Show, where levity meets real action. Proceeds support Climate Defiance’s fearless, people-powered fight against the climate crisis.
Featuring headliner Rahmein Mostafavi (recently featured for Josh Johnson), Madinah Wilson-Anton (Delaware State Representative), Haywood Turnipseed Jr. (Kennedy Center), Davidson Boswell (The New Yorker, MTV), host Chris Blackwood (Grassroots Comedy Executive Director), and more!
If they’re laughing while the world burns, we might as well laugh back - and do something about it.
