We are...

The Muffia is made up of a group of women who create performance, political interventions and comedy in reaction to the culture we live in. We are based in the London and Manchester and we hope to collaborate with more people across more cities in the UK.


It started when...

Katie and Sinead met doing a life changing Performance workshop in February 2008 with La Pocha Nostra at the Tramway, Glasgow. We discovered that some of our ideas, political motives and creative work were similar and urgently needed to be realised in a collaborative process.


We consider ourselves...

to be Artists, Feminists, 
Activists and Comediennes. This is the prerequisite to how we articulate our political views and more importantly generate interest in political issues. We want to engage with people who are not accessing alternative concepts outside of what is on offer from the mainstream culture.


We mainly do...

Performance, comedy, social interactions and engagement, political performances and happenings about identity, gender, cultural stereotypes and sexuality.
