About Flor de Loto
Flor de Loto is the stage name of Emma Rojas Pizarro, a Chilean feminist stand-up comedian and the creator of the Weonaaa Festival, the first stand-up comedy festival in Chile made up entirely of women. According to Rojas, the idea for the festival came after she was offered a theater she could not fill on her own, prompting her to invite other women comedians to join her and build a shared bill instead. The first edition ran in January 2023 at the Centro Cultural San Gines in a marathon format, and the festival has continued annually, drawing large crowds to venues such as Teatro La Cupula. Rojas has performed her own material under the Flor de Loto name at venues including Teatro Ictus, with a show billed as feminist stand-up comedy, and continues to organize and perform at each new edition of the festival she founded.
