​
The Washington, D.C. area has a thriving comedy scene. As in most places, the majority of standup comedy shows in DC are primarily made up of cis male comedians. Amplifying the diverse voices of the DMV is critical, and we want people of all genders to know that they belong on stage.
In spring of 2023, Grassroots Comedy created and launched an incubator program for underrepresented genders in comedy -- it was so much fun that we did it again and again, and this show features graduates from our fifth cohort of students! Now's your chance to see some of the funniest new people taking the stage in DC before they get famous. 
Proceeds from this show will go towards operational expenses of the 
You Belong on Stage Standup Comedy Incubator
, and will help make comedy in the nation's capital (and beyond) more representative of the people who actually live there. 
Cohort 5 Graduates:
Annie Kling
Avery Miller
Cynthia Via
Elizabeth Smith
Em Knepp
Kanyinsola Ajayi
Meera Kallapura
Micaiah Kimble-Glover
Rebecca Jacobs
Shreya Datta
Vas Vlastaras

Historic buildings

生长在海边的果果

The Capitol building needs to make an appointment to buy tickets in advance to visit. Arrive on time according to the requirements. There are many people. Be sure to have an advance amount to not affect the itinerary. You can make an appointment for a Chinese tour in advance. Although it is a Chinese tour, it is also a foreigner tour guide who speaks English and uses a translator to translate it into Chinese to play it for us. It is very interesting. The interior of the Capitol is also very good from the perspective of the building itself. You must explain it when you go in and visit.

National Mall

The National Mall is a must-check-in place for Washington tourism. One is the Lincoln Memorial and the other is the Washington Monument. There is a pool of water between them and green spaces on both sides. There are monuments such as the Victory Memorial of World War II, the Vietnam War and other monuments, and the Jefferson Memorial. The beautiful cherry blossoms of the annual Washington Cherry Blossom Festival are also in full bloom around this area. We arrived in Washington at the end of April. It is a pity that the cherry blossoms have been lost and have not left a trace. I can only imagine that the scene of blooming must be beautiful.

The White House

泰迪小熊

Came here on September 22, 2017.

I heard that the White House has not been open to the public since 9/11. When we went there, we could only watch it from a distance outside the fence, so the White House became a boring landmark. We took a tourist check-in photo to end our visit.

There is a big pine tree on the south side of the White House. I didn&rsquo;t expect it to be a &quot;landmark&quot; as well, the &quot;National Christmas Tree&quot;... Well, it seems that we should choose to visit during Christmas.

Lincoln Memorial

Night view

[Cost-effective] 24 hours free opening, although we went to 6 o&#39;clock, but winter ❄️ dark early. But the momentum is still the same. But how do you feel that Taipei&#39;s Zhongzheng Memorial Hall and Lincoln Memorial Hall are so similar! [View] Needless to say, the atmosphere is magnificent! Facing the Washington Monument! At this time, I suddenly remembered that Chairman Mao&#39;s poem &quot;Jiangshan so many beautiful, attracted countless heroes to fold!

Washington Monument

铨上风满楼

Washington DC monument is one of the landmark buildings in Washington DC... It was built to commemorate the first president of the United States, George Washington. This stone monument was once the tallest building in the world... Today, it is still the tallest stone obelisk in the world...
