The Ladies of Laughter was first created as an annual tribute to New York comedian, Mary Jo Wobker. In the early nineties in New York City, Mary Jo helped dozens of women just starting out by booking them in monthly showcases throughout the northeast. For many women, this was the first paying work they received for performing comedy. After Mary Jo suddenly passed away, an annual award was named in her honor whereby comediennes would submit their videotapes for the chance to win cash, publicity, and a “leg up” in their comedy careers.
