The show, Transgender Menace & Her Funny Friends: A Comedy Show, featured a local lineup. When asked about the show’s title, Morton explains, “It’s a joke about the transgender menace destroying our youth … I want [the show] to focus on quality. Morton started comedy after finishing a hike on the Pacific Crest Trail. As Morton shared, “It’s just putting a twist on the weird sadnesses of the world and recontextualizing them as silly.” —Katrina CanoPhotos by Roberto Valdez:Read about other local comedy shows:SLUG Localized: Stand-Up Comedy Showcase 2025SLUG Localized: Stand-Up Comedy ShowcaseTo help SLUG continue its support of local comics like Andrea Morton, consider joining our community of donors!
