This week Monica and Camila talked to local comedian and Kween Nelu Handa. 

Nelu is a comedian, actor, writer, and producer raised in Brampton, Ontario. She’s written and performed on hit Canadian television shows like Baroness Von Sketch Show, The Beaverton, Workin Moms, and Jann. She also created Yas Kween, a groundbreaking monthly night of comedy that showcases women of colour. 

We talked about being politically correct while being funny, being a marginalized person in comedy, and what it’s been like making space for women of colour in Toronto’s comedy scene.  

For the Merienda this week Monica had Craig’s Cookies, a local Toronto bakery that makes the most decadent cookies (and which are available for delivery)! 

Show Notes

  • Yas Kween, a monthly comedy show featuring women of colour, created and hosted by Nelu!  
  • The Bob Curry Fellowship, Second City’s comedy training program for diverse, multicultural performers  
  • Julie Dumais Osbourne, former Director of Bad Dog Theatre
  • Things Black Girls Say, a comedy show hosted by Zabrina Douglas  
  • The Nubian Show, comedy show hosted by Kenny Robinson that used to run monthly 
  • Comedy Bar, a independent comedy venue in Toronto  
  • Neha Kohli, co-producer of Yas Kween 
  • Nedda Antoi, Social Media Manager of Yas Kween.

Hablamos de ser políticamente correctxs sin dejar de ser graciosxs, de ser una persona marginada en el ámbito de la comedia y de cómo es crear espacio para las mujeres de color en la escena de la comedia en Toronto.

¡Para la Merienda de esta semana, Mónica comió unas deliciosas galletas de Craig’s Cookies, una panadería local de Toronto donde hacen las galletas más decadentes (Y tienen servicio a domicilio!!)
