About Reyna Gobel
Reyna Gobel presents this solo stand-up comedy show at the Basement Bar. The show is Gobel's comedy version of the most difficult moment in her life: the man she loved mansplained her age and perceived infertility, diagnosed using what she calls his medical degree from the men-know-everything academy. A short, direct and personal show that finds comedy in the specific absurdity of being talked down to about your own body. Running 30 minutes, for audiences aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
Short, sharp and specific — Gobel turns a genuinely awful experience into thirty minutes of comedy that will ring true for anyone who has ever been confidently wrong-footed by someone who should know better.
