Denver comedian Dayna McTavish created 'Dating Is a Dumpster Fire,' a stand-up show where she and fellow comics share their hilarious (and sometimes horrifying) dating experiences. The show offers an outlet for singles to vent their frustrations and connect with others who understand the struggles of modern dating.
Dayna McTavish realized her love life was comically bad while on a first date with a man who proposed eating homeless people to put them out of their misery. Fearing he would murder her if she left early, McTavish listened to her date's cannibalistic rant for ninety minutes, all the while thinking, 'This would make a good story.
' That experience sparked an idea that has blossomed into 'Dating Is a Dumpster Fire,' a stand-up comedy show where McTavish and a panel of Denver comedians share their horror stories about modern dating. McTavish's comedy show provides an outlet for locals to vent their frustrations. Each show features a new panel of Denver comedians who share their experiences, the upcoming show will include...The event typically starts with the audience answering a dating question on slips of paper to be read aloud by the comedians. Past shows have resulted in Q&As like, 'What's the biggest red flag you've ignored? — When he left his toenail clippings on the counter.' Or, 'What's your craziest ick? — When he throws a bowling ball like a little bitch.' Every show is different. Sometimes the comedians give dating advice to audience members, debate who should pay on a first date or whether it's weird to have sex with socks on, or test out their best pickup lines. (McTavish's favorite came from Jeff Nelson: 'Girl, are you 9/11? Because I'll never forget you.') 'You never know what's going to happen,' McTavish says. 'The audience members have really surprised me with how willing they are to get into it.
