When not one, not two, but three of the best people in comedy take to the stage at Stylist Live LUXE, you can expect a lot of laughs. And that’s what the audience got from Sofie Hagen, Susan Wokoma and Kemah Bob. However, when they began their talk, it was clear that their dissection of the news was going to be touching on very serious topics, too.

Whether they were discussing Emma Watson’s admission of being self-partnered or the McDonald’s boss who had a relationship with his colleague, the women kept coming back to one important point: how we treat each other in our world of constant feedback. And that’s because, unfortunately, when you’re as successful as these women, trolls become a part of your everyday life.

All three women are brilliant comedians. Sofie Hagen has sold out two tours – Shimmer Shatter (2016) and Dead Baby Frog (2017), founded wildly popular podcasts including The Guilty Feminist with Deborah Frances-White, and Made Of Human, and is author of Happy Fat: Taking Up Space In A World That Wants To Shrink You.

Wokoma is also The Guilty Feminist alumni, and has given knockout performances in Chewing Gum, Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Crashing and her recent role as Bottom in A Midsummer Night’s Dream was game-changing. And Kemah Bob is the founder of The FOC IT UP Comedy Club for femme comedians of colour, and also a regular at the Edingburgh Fringe and on BBC and Channel 4 comedy shows.

Sofie Hagen, Susan Wokoma and Kemah Bob join forces to deliver powerful statement on “woke“ call-out culture
