Funny & Fearless, Stand-up comedy

Part of REACT – The National Theater's International Festival 2026

Funny and Fearless – Muslim Women Stand-Up

This entertaining show brings together some of the sharpest female voices in international stand-up comedy in a performance that is as bold as it is liberating. Under the confident and quick-witted leadership of Swedish actor and comedian Nisti Sterk, the show offers personal stories, political edge, and humor with heart.

The result is an explosive and confident stage experience where the comedians create a space of both vulnerability and strength, and the audience gets to laugh out loud at recognition, absurdity, and courage.

The National Theaterin collaboration with SterkProduktion AB.
