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

Portland’s physical comedy powerhouse brings her “raw and primal and side-splittingly funny” solo show to Olympia for one night only, Friday, October 25, 7:30pm at Wild Man.

Are you pregnant? Recently given birth? Never want kids? This show is for you! But it’s ESPECIALLY for you (and free!) 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 show unlike any other” and a “sexy show” by audiences, this 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 🤡
