Jen Kirkman is back on stage for the first time in five years and only at Joe's Pub with "I'm Not Trying To Be Funny" (but it's ok to laugh). Breaking free from stand-up comedy Jen is reading and telling stories about death, love, Tik Tok, perimenopause, bad therapy, quantum physics, and being a Gen-X woman enjoying living her worst life.
