Madison’s first LGBTQ standup comedy show Alphabet Soup welcomes Kelly Mantle from “RuPaul’s Drag Race” and Logo TV’s “One Night Stand Up”.

Although the show is free, this month will have a suggested $10.00 donation that will benefit AIDS Network. “I felt it was important to give back to the community for all of it’s support” said Dina Nina Martinez, host and producer of the show.

The show currently runs monthly at Plan B, 924 Williamson St., Madison, WI 53704
The next show is December 19th at 7:00 pm with Headliner Kelly Mantle featuring Trannika Rex from Chicago and local comics La Bomba Waters, Gregg Potter and hosted by Dina Nina Martinez.

She is the creator and host of Madison’s first and only queer comedy show Alphabet Soup, “The D Word” podcast, and the forthcoming The Dina Martinez Show.
