Standing Still is a brand-new stand-up comedy show by seasoned comic, ex-professional dancer and cabaret dynamo Joana Joy (Banana Jolie). In a desperate move to ‘do less’ and ‘be more’, JJ has created a stand-up comedy show where she will stand (mostly) still. Except at three random times, decided by the audience -when she will absolutely throw down.
Stand-up comedy with dance. Maybe a Muay Thai demonstration. As a socially conscious comedian, JJ shines light on the human experience. Her material ranges from being a mature age student, the history of dust, idioms rewritten, how to not smoke and have clean habits, meditation, tidying-up, therapy and sibling dynamics.
