Funny Women Amsterdam

A place and stage for everyone

Since 2019, Funny Women Amsterdam has been creating spaces where everyone feels welcome on stage and in the audience. Our Open Mic Nights feature a mix of seasoned comedians and first-time performers, promising an unforgettable evening of discovery, laughter, and shared moments.

Plein Theater, the host venue, is committed to connecting people through art and culture; it provides a platform for diverse stories and creative initiatives. The theatre’s long-standing vision to counter polarisation and foster connections aligns seamlessly with our mission to empower women and underrepresented voices in comedy.

Expect fresh, exciting acts from talented performers across the Netherlands and beyond. This is your opportunity to support a thriving community and enjoy comedy in a fun and welcoming space.

Why Funny Women Amsterdam?

We’re part of a global effort to redefine the comedy stage. Inspired by Funny Women, founded in the UK in 2002 by Lynne Parker, we aim to nurture talent and create opportunities for women and underrepresented voices in comedy. Learn more about our story and check the website.
