Monica vs. the Internet

ahmm
May 20 – 21, 2023

Live performance

Presented by vAct

Award-winning Filipina storyteller and comedian Monica Ogden sheds light on activism and disability culture, mixed-race identity, and how white feminism is like Lays chips. From Lilang’s immigration, mom’s rise to stardom as Miss Kapuskasing, to Monica’s failed YouTube career, Monica lives in the reality of intergenerational trauma and how it affects the Filipina women who raised her. Monica vs. the Internet: Tales of a Social Justice Warrior is a multi-media stand-up show that will leave you in tears, both the laughy kind and the heart ones.
