"Woman to Woman is filled with hilarious insights and storytelling. These comics know how to evoke hearty laughter without being inappropriate or using offensive language," said Ty Tabing, Director, Cultural Affairs Department. "This is the perfect show for a date night or girls' night out!"

The show will open with Natasha Naomi Calloway, a stand-up comedian who is refers to herself as a professional joy booster thanks to her ability to encourage and uplift people with her words. Currently touring in the Ladies Night Improv comedy tour in South Florida, she has also recently been featured at several comedy events including her monthly open mic event Tantilizing Thursdays in Fort Lauderdale.

The featured comedian goes by Lady T and is a premiere stand-up act who has been featured on stages across the country. She is bold, charming, and a self-proclaimed country girl. She has appeared in stage plays and opened for some of the country's hottest comedians. Most notably she has appeared at The Improv many times throughout her 20-year career and was also a featured artist on the Tom Joyner Family Reunion Cruise.

Headliner Chinnitta Morris, who goes by Chocolate, was a favorite on Def Comedy Jam and Comic View. In 1998, she fully committed herself to Christianity. However, the transition wasn't easy, as she faced criticism from her peers who did not understand her decision to leave secular comedy when her career was going so well. But for Chocolate, her new path has brought even greater success. Her television appearances included spots on Comedy Jam, B.E.T.'s Comic View, The Tavis Smiley Show, Oh Drama, The Bobby Jones Gospel Hour, B.E.T.'s Gospel, and on The Kingdom Comedy Tour. She has also toured with and opened for many comedians and performers, including Bernie Mac and Kirk Franklin.
