Mom Jokes – Holiday Special – NOV 30, 2024

Mom Jokes – Like Dad Jokes, but better – a seasonal comedy show for moms, by moms, that has made moms laugh since 2019! This holiday season we are so excited to be working with the Riverside Hotel to produce a truly unique event. Mom Jokes will be having a post-Thanksgiving party in the ballroom, and The Riverside is pulling out all the stops! Treat yourself and the moms in your life to post-Thanksgiving wind-down with Mom Jokes and a night away from home. Let The Riverside do the cooking and cleaning while you enjoy a night in the city, a delicious meal, and a comedy show! (And a bunch of other seasonal treats yet to be announced!)

Mom Jokes is produced by Boise Comic & Mom, Krystal Moore. Krystal has been producing comedy shows in Boise for 6 years. She started Mom Jokes in 2019; when at an open mic, telling Mom Jokes to a crowd of young comics and a table of barflies she decided there had to be a better way. The first Mom Jokes at Liquid Laughs sold out and every show since then has sold out. Mom Jokes books a new lineup of local Momics every show. This show’s lineup features a few old favorites as well as some new faces.

• Krystal Moore – Workin’ Mom
• Sherry Japhet – Empty Nester Mom
• Beth Norton – Cat Mom
• Sonya Feibert – Craft Mom
• Brittany Hargis – Single Mom

Krystal Moore

“Workin’ Mom” Krystal Moore grew up in Weiser Idaho, the kind of one-stop-light small town that has 50 churches but a limited cheese selection. Despite her small stature, she was always too big for Weiser; her taste in cheese far too vast and expensive. She took the long hard way out, but despite every dumpster fire, street brawl, and economic collapse, she flew… and while flying high above the land she saw how very small and funny we all are. Just a bunch of naked monkeys doing science and farting.

Today Krystal has been a working comedian and comedy producer for over 10 years. She created The Jack Mormon Comedy Hour For Latter-Day Sinners, a biannual comedy show that has successfully run for 8 years. She created Mom Jokes – Like Dad Jokes, But Better, a comedy show for moms by moms that has sold out every show for 5 straight years. During the lockdown, she created a one-woman curbside comedy show that took her to 54 different homes in the Treasure Valley to perform standup comedy in Clown. This show evolved into the April Fools’ Comedy Show that has had 2 successful years. After that she created an openly feminist monthly comedy show called Femme Fatale – These Ladies Kill which is also in its second year of production. She created Dark Jokes, not the concept of dark jokes, but a show for dark jokes and dark joke lovers.

 

Features:

Sherry Japhet

Sonya Feibert

“Craft Mom” Sonya Feibert is a writer, comedian, and mom to one dog, one human, and many plants. She’s been a featured storyteller and a Slammer of the Year finalist at Story Story Night. In 2023, Sonya performed at Idaho’s Best, Worst, and Weirdest Comedians. She was not the Best, Worst, or Weirdest but did discover a small hole in her pants after the show. She also does typewriter poetry, creating personalized poems made up on the spot. Like a true Gemini, Sonya has her hand in a lot of cookie jars but only eats the ones with chocolate chips. She was an extra on Portlandia and took first place in a writing contest, but her true claim to fame is being able to raise each eyebrow independently.

 

 

Tilly

“Boy Mom” Tilly spent much of her life working both in bars and schools, both of which are known to lead to alcoholism, so she took a break to have a kid… which can also lead to alcoholism. Instead of turning to that, she turned to comedy… which is also known to lead to alcoholism (but we’re all laughing). After having lived in comedy hubs such as California, DC, and Wisconsin, Tilly decided to launch her career in Boise Idaho. As a former educator and current “geriatric” mom, she has a unique insight into just how weird kids truly are. Tilly loves making fun of herself, her family, and the goofiness of life. Check her out at www.tillythecomic.com.

Andrea Wilson

“Church Mom” Andrea Wilson is a stand-up comedian, PTA Parent, fat and proud woman, and active member of her community and church. Delivering mostly clean comedy; she specializes in shaming fat-shamers, mom-servational humor, and tales from the married life of a middle-aged lady.

Natasha Dash

Eric Cole

“Mr. Mom” Eric Cole is here to give these other moms a break, and he expects constant, unwavering praise for it. Not all heroes wear capes. You’re welcome.

Sherry Japhet

She’s the real “cool mom”… She’s also seconds from popping; so she’ll definitely have some Mom Jokes come showtime! Until then we all wish her the best of luck in labor; may it be short and soon, and may the epidural flow freely!

Jynx Jenkins & Alisha Donahue of Lady Bizness

Two sweet, smoky broads, from Boise, Idaho, who are winning at life. On stage, their utterly unique and seamless blend of standup, sketch, and music skewers womanhood and leaves everyone with sore laugh muscles for days (it counts as a workout). An evening with the Biz is like hanging out with your favorite inappropriate friends if your favorite friends were recurring winners of The Boise Weekly’s Best Comedian reader’s pick; shared the stage with comedy giants such as Gilbert Gottfried, Fortune Feimster, Hannibal Buress, and Emo Phillips; and recently made their debut at The World Famous Comedy Store in Hollywood. Alisha and Jynx organize the annual Boise’s Funniest Person competition for amateur comedians, produce the monthly themed comedy show COOL BIRTHDAY at Liquid Laughs, and manage, between the two of them, to feed six hungry children on a semi-regular basis. Look, they’re busy.

Tanya Cope

She’s a divorced mom with a house that’s falling down around her. Classic comedy. She ain’t the only one in that boat, tho… so if you relate to that; you might wanna get your ticket to Mom Jokes and have a laugh about it.

Hailee Lenhart-Wees

Motherhood comes in many forms, Hailee Lenhart-Wees earned her stripes while still a child, like so many latch-key kids in the ’90s, keeping her younger siblings technically alive and well-fed on Ego Waffles and Chef Boyardee.

She’s also a powerhouse in the comedy scene, producing her own series of shows… because she’s not the type of woman to wait for a man to open the door or give her a mic. Watch her drop it (but not really, because we respect sound equipment).
