Silvi Santoso: Dishonour on Your Cow

"Silvi applies courageous humor to a serious topic involving the abuse too often perpetrated against women and children" K. Howarth

Funny, Dark, Emotional and True! A show about a sexual assault survivor's journey from her childhood and all the struggles in finding her way to recovery. She tells stories, jokes, sings and dances. She risks sharing her story, and the audiences risk feeling uncomfortable, but it's laughs that matter. A show for everyone who wants to understand and be empowered. Together we will change the world, one joke at a time.

"It takes guts to speak so candidly about such difficult & disturbing subjects, and it’s necessary to hear her voice" Mooney on Theatre

"Her life then became a tragedy which she shared and made fun of it at times throughout the play" J. Hilwan

Presented by: Silvi Santoso

Silvi Santoso, known in Canada as the Asian Roseanne, stumbled onto the comedy stage after being dared by a friend to try stand up comedy. From those humble beginnings, she has become a standout presence worldwide, wowing crowds across Asia, Canada, and the United States. Shocking real-life anecdotes combined with a black and blue comedy style results in a bruising performance, leaving audiences laughing, reeling and ready for round 2. International live comedy credits include Detroit Women Comedy Festival, Bangkok International Comedy Competition, We The Men (New York and Toronto), The Funniest Person in the World Competition (Laugh Factory Los Angeles), Rape is Real (National Canadian Tour). Not bad for a woman just hoping to get her 8x10 hung up in a comedy club!
