Curated by Tiffany Haddish

Tiffany Haddish is curating a series of half-hour stand-up specials for Netflix showcasing black female comedians.

The comics chosen for Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Read – Chaunté Wayans, April Macie, Tracey Ashley, Aida Rodriguez, Flame Monroe, and Marlo Williams – all worked with the Girls Trip star on the stand-up circuit or on TV projects.

Monroe identifies as transgender, while Wayans is a niece of the film-making Wayans brothers.

Haddish said: ‘I am introducing six of my favorite comedians – in my eyes, they are superstars. The epitome of They Ready.’

Other executive producers on the show are comedian Wanda Sykes and former Last Comic Standing producer Page Hurwitz.
