📖 A monologue on self-affirmation and laughter

Poderío is a show bearing the name of a traditional copla song alongside a political and emotional core. Inspired by classic folclórica icons who commanded attention without ever apologizing, this stand-up routine explores what happens when we stop apologizing for simply being who we are.

Shifting focus from years of external critique aimed at female comedians, Riezu turns inward to explore high sensitivity, life experience, well-aimed irritation, and raw emotional intelligence. The performance navigates topics such as relationships, aging, beauty standards, Ozempic, motherhood and childlessness, fertility clinics, egg donation, housing struggles, cystitis, menstrual cups, and crying at yogurt commercials.

🎭 The performer and the venue

Virginia Riezu delivers sharp comedy without preachiness or solemnity, showing that sensitivity is not fragility and that shared laughter is its own kind of power. The performance takes place at Sala Imanol Larzabal inside the Lugaritz cultural center.

✨ An evening of sharp, unfiltered comedy turning everyday contradictions into collective strength.
