Mad as HELLcat

Hellcat is Washington Improv Theater’s all-female company ensemble and look, we are mad as hell.

Hellcat proudly and unapologetically stands for bodily autonomy; abortion is healthcare and a deeply private and personal decision to be made at an individual level, regardless of one’s state of residence or economic standing. We firmly believe that equitable access to safe abortion is integral to the freedom, agency, and empowerment of women and all people with uteruses across this country, and that the threat to landmark SCOTUS case, Roe V. Wade, is a direct threat to those with the least resources, especially in a country where social support services are chronically underfunded.

In light of this, Hellcat, and some of our friends, invite YOU–and all of YOUR friends–to come together for a night of improv comedy to raise money for the National Network of Abortion Funds. The NNAF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose mission is to: build power with members to remove financial and logistical barriers to abortion access by centering people who have abortions and organizing at the intersections of racial, economic, and reproductive justice.

Please join us at Source Theatre on Thursday, July 21st, at 7:30pm to raise a little hell and a whole lot of money!

You can learn more about the NNAF, how abortion funds work, and why they matter here.
