Bird: Full Special

Created by: Kylie Vincent (Comedy Central, Edinburgh Fringe, Insider)
“Daddy Issues” is an understatement. This stand-up/confessional solo show, explores a young woman fearful of becoming everything she had once knew from her white-trash, animalistic family back home. Vincent sifts through each memory and trait in attempt to reject her “monkey-like” qualities, but learns the inevitable.
“Birds, for me, are mediators between heaven and earth. Once upon a time, when women were birds, there was the simple understanding that to sing at dawn and to sing at dusk was to heal the world through joy. The birds still remember what we have forgotten: that the world is meant to be celebrated.” - Terry Tempest Williams

Dedicated to all the SA Survivors: released during April Sexual Assault Awareness Month 2024.

Kylie's highly anticipated breakthrough set on Comedy Central has been viewed over 90k times and has opened on the road for Chris Gethard and Hannah Berner. "Kylie Vincent is someone to watch and the world will be hearing more from her in years to come." Kylie tours with her disabled dog and wants you to know that she was already broken when she got her.

THANK YOU’S-
I built out my SUV and travelled the country, performing Bird in over 10 different cities. I couldn’t have done without the help of everyone in my life and the people I met along the way. To everyone’s shower, bed, kitchen, and couch I used - one day when I’m filthy rich I will buy you something of value, like a chicken (because they make eggs, it’s very plentiful).
Thank you to Will Foskey, Tamar Rubin, Orion Levine, Kylie Kelleher, Eric Osovsky, Ali Waller, Andrea Allen, Tasja Drahveen, Savannah Mcmenemy, Emir O’hara, Jamie Wolf, Brooke Finegold, Lucas Zelnick, Miranda Meadows, JP Puthenveetil, and Skye Horgan. You’ve all had significant impacts on my journey, I love you guys.
To Barbara Pitts McAdams for having big dreams for this show and supporting me.
Thank you to The Cultch for having me and empowering femme artists. Bird is also available to stream on The Cultch Replay, along with other great artists’ shows. I felt so grateful to do my show in Canada (who is famously known for having nice people).
Thank you to all of Bird’s audience member’s and all the survivor’s that have resonated with this show.
Last, but certainly not least, thank you so much to Mollie Berg. Not only is she the best person in the world, but the best at her job. Thank you for believing me, uplifting me, and doing everything you do, I am the luckiest to have you!

I remember watching you from backstage while working on Pippin in high school and watching this was really amazing. To see what you’ve been through and how you’re going through it. This was really funny and really heartbreaking/heartwarming and overall fantastic!
