Jacki Kane (The Comedienne Formerly Known As Jacki Sturkie) was pretty certain that motherhood is the proverbial mother lode for stand-up comedy material – and she also realized that moms need to laugh. So she created TIME OUT: The Mother of All Comedies which plays monthly at Airplay Café. Kane does stand-up and MCs the show which also includes other talented moms and has themes like “Honey, I Shrunk My Libido” and “What Not to Wear: The Toddler Edition.”
Now Kane is bringing the show to moms who can’t make the evening time slots. TIME OUT: Mommy Matinee debuts this Wednesday (June 17) from 1 to 2 pm at Airplay Café, 701 E Burnside. The theme is “What to Escape When You’re Expecting.” The cost for the all-ages show is $5 per mom; kids free. Along with Kane, the show features Kate Haas (Miranda Zine) Debbie Dodds (local actress) and Amy Wang Manning (Oregonian editor and Omama Blogger). Those attending are eligible for prizes from Zenana Spa and Chirp Tweet (organic baby t-shirts). For more information, visit www.airplaycafe.com.
