Enter the afterbirth at Anne Zander is MOTHER, a 2024 CoHo ClownFest postpartum comedy!

Le Why Not Productions proudly presents this “raw and primal and side-splittingly funny” solo show from physical comedy powerhouse, Anne Zander, Sunday, September 22 at 7:30pm at CoHo Theatre.

Are you pregnant? Recently given birth? Never want kids? This show is for you! But it’s ESPECIALLY for you if you’ve recently given birth and are currently stumbling through the haze wondering, WTF??

Pumping breast milk to a sick beat! Ass shaking in mesh underwear (IYKYK)! Fluids from the body and beyond! Called a “gay show” and a “sexy show” by audiences, this sweaty, hysterical, wet, messy postpartum clown* comedy is darkly hilarious, yet undeniably familiar to anyone who has ever given birth. 

“She takes things we as a society don’t like to talk about, or only talk about in whispers… and amplifies them to the most outrageous extreme you can imagine. She’s a clown, so it’s funny, but it also has the effect of making you feel not alone in your own essential weirdness.”

— Krista Garver, BroadwayWorld

Ultimately, we all came from someone who passed through this bizarre, un-talked-about rite of passage, and only Anne Zander will lay that experience out in its unbearable rawness AND make you laugh until you pee a little (or a lot, no pelvic floor judgment here) at its sheer absurdity. 

*Think Natalie Palamides’ Netflix Special NATE over Bozo in the big top 🤡 

Le Why Not Productions dissolves barriers between audience and performers, shines laughter into the dark corners of the human experience, and creates a space where contrasts collide and harmonize through the art of comedy. 

CoHo ClownFest celebrates physical comedy, movement arts, humor, and fringe performance. Founded in memory of the late Phillip Cuomo’s vision for a CoHo circus, the festival is a four-week celebration of clown, community, joy and playful whimsy.
