Maitreyi began her stand-up career at the age of 44, and in just seven years, she has become a trailblazing voice in Hong Kong’s comedy scene. MAITRIARCHY promises 85 minutes of laughter, hosted by the “hilarious hostess of the mostess,” Vivek Mahbubani. The show kicks off with opening sets from Ryan Hynek and Mohammed Magdi, followed by 55 minutes of fresh, original material from Maitreyi herself.

Her set combines sharp punchlines with heartfelt storytelling, drawing from family road trips, cultural clashes, midlife awakenings, and the challenges of breaking boundaries as a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry. And, of course, you can expect plenty of Hong Kong-inspired humor to keep the crowd roaring. Don’t miss this exciting night of comedy!
