Can't make it to Comics Come Home? Or do you just want to see rising stars who aren't always on Comedy Central 24/7? Five funny females will be performing in Jamaica Plain tonight. The performers include host Susan Alexander, Maggie MacDonald, Erin Judge, Maria Ciampa, and Michelle Buteau.

Urban myths and legends have sprung up that women aren't funny. A certain male intellectual devoted a long Vanity Fair article to the subject, but Bostonist is pleased to tell you that the rumors aren't true and the writers are wrong. If you thought women weren't funny in the first place--a) what's your problem? and b) this probably isn't the show for you.

This show is highly recommended, as we've had the pleasure of seeing Maggie MacDonald and Erin Judge at the Boston Comedy Festival. As a matter of fact, Judge in particular got robbed when she didn't advance from the preliminaries to the semi-finals.
