Read The Room
A standup comedy show by Jess Bauldry
Deze inhoud is helaas niet in het Nederlands beschikbaar.
Jess Bauldry is a standup comedian and writer with genuinely tragic timing: she found her voice the exact same year AI found its.

In this work in progress, she shares some of her stories, unpacks the obsession that led her straight into a life of poverty, self-sabotage, and unpaid emotional labour, and pays tribute to the best friends we'll ever have: books.
Expect audience participation, unwilling amateur readings, and a lot of silliness.
This is a show for anyone who's ever been rejected by a journal, a publisher, or just their own mother. For anyone working on ten novels at any given time, none of them finished. For anyone who prefers books to people and, deep down, still hasn't read all the books either.
About the artist
Jess Bauldry holds a Master's degree and a Bachelor's degree, both spectacularly useless, and channels them into writing anything that will sit still long enough, short stories, plays, strongly-worded shopping lists, all in the hope that one day she'll finish something. And publish it. And then, in a plot twist nobody saw coming, find people willing to read it. In the meantime, she's settled for the stage instead of the page: at least a comedy audience laughs at the unfinished stuff on purpose.
