Date: 19 Jan 2016 (Tue)

Time: 16:30-18:30

Venue: D2-LP-08, The Hong Kong Institute of Education

Moderator: Dr. Emily Ridge (Lecturer, Department of Literature and Cultural Studies)

Linda Kennedy will talk about “Sit Down Comedy”, a concept she created to challenge the male-dominated comedy business, as quoted “humour is like going to the toilets, men stand up, women sit down”. She offers alternative comedy events  by using a different kind of position, topics and articulations.

Linda was also featured in TEDx Hong Kong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAcqvuc8QvY
