Ain’t no party like a Maggie Faris party!
Cuz a Maggie Faris party don’t stop!
Q&A with Alicia Kısmet
Have you performed on Maggie’s PRIDE show before?
I haven’t performed on one of her shows before! Knowing Maggie’s comedy, I am sure folks can expect unhinged hilarious queer comedy!
If you had to pick any color of the rainbow to be, which color would you pick and why?
I think I would pick green because it feels moody.
What does PRIDE mean to you?
For me, Pride means that I can be my authentic self and be proud of it.
What makes you excited about the future of queerness?
I’m really excited about people feeling safe to come out as nonbinary and gender fluid. It gives me hope that eventually the patriarchy will die and the future will be truly queer.
What are you talking about right now in your comedy?
These days in my comedy, I am talking about queer parents having kids, me being confused about my age, sexuality and how weird labels are, dating, sex, relationships, my family, my cats, healthy and not-so-healthy boundaries, intimacy.
What is your astrological sign?
Aquarius ♒️
Favorite gas station snack?
Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake 🍰 Ice Cream Bar.
What are you reading or listening to right now?
“With Teeth” by Kristen Arnett
