Hysterical Women put Michelle Buteau, Jessica Kirson, Jen Kober and Alyce Chan on stage at The Get Down PDX on September 24, 2026, for an invite-only night. They roasted the symptoms women are told to live with as part of aging: brain fog, random rage, night sweats, thinning hair. Under the jokes was the point of the night: those symptoms have a hormonal cause, and they can be treated.

I executive produced the night for Midi. I produced the event and managed its vendors, handled the talent and partner relationships, ran internal project management, shaped the guest experience, produced the print collateral and line produced the live shoot.

The show was filmed for Midi’s campaign. The trailer and a clip from each comedian launched on Instagram and YouTube on October 27, 2026.
