FUNNY WOMEN OF A CERTAIN AGE®
"If I had to choose between ageism or sexism, I'd take a pat
on the behind any day, since that meant someone noticed
me.” Carole Montgomery creator of Funny Women of A
Certain Age®
What began as a way to work with her friends has exploded on the
comedy scene. When Carole (a veteran of the stand up scene for over
40 years) started, you would never see two female comics on the
same show. Fast forward to today’s comedy scene and nothing has
changed, even though there are way more women in comedy.
Funny Women or WOACA was created to give older women comics a
chance to be seen and heard. Frustrated with how women are
portrayed on television once they hit 50, Carole decided to do
something about it. She’s fighting ageism AND sexism one joke at a
time. The women who appear in WOACA are all funny, vibrant and
brilliant, they just happen to be of a certain age. These women paved
the way for the female comics you see today.
Funny Women of a Certain Age was Showtime's highest rated comedy
special of 2019 and made television history as the first special to
feature 6 female comics over the age of 50.
