Kavita Singh
@kavitasingh200 (she/her) | Bisexual
Kavita Singh 🌟 is a stand-up comedian based out of the San Francisco Bay Area 🌉. Her comedy is often described as a 'vagina monologue' 🎤. You might recognize her from snagging third place 🥉 in the Nassau County Spelling Bee 📚, but there's more to her story! Kavita not only shines on stage but also runs a monthly women/queer comedy showcase at Gilman Brewing in Berkeley called Bitchfest 🎭✨ and a killer monthly comedy confessional show in the Castro named Cake Shop 🍰. Get ready to be entertained with Kavita Singh 🔥
Weyam Al-Ghadban
@iamyouamweyam (they/them) | Queer, Nonbinary, Gender Queer
Weyam Al-Ghadban 🌟 identifies less as a comic, and more as a guy 👨🎤, standing in front of a crowd, asking them to love them ❤️. They grew up Syrian 🇸🇾 and Muslim ☪️ in the South 🍑, which was not not hard. For work, they facilitate conflict workshops 🤝 for social justice groups, motivated by the pure Gemini ♊ desire to have their hand in all the gossip 🗣️. We’re excited to have Weyam make their Safe Words Comedy Showcase debut!
