About this show
A few years ago Shannon was diagnosed with OCD after a lifetime of performing ridiculous compulsions (Yes! She’s a performer!). This show is about that, amongst other things. After a very successful 2025 debut show A Horseless Rodeo, Shannon Brooke is back and she still is NOT talking about horses! 'Tonally, she walks a tightrope... absurd, honest, dark, heartfelt... and never loses her balance' (One4Review.co.uk). 'A working dichotomy between sunniness and edge' (Edinburgh Laughter Bulletin, Substack).

Go and see Shannon Brooke before she gets famous. Be quick. Stardom, if that’s what she wants, isn’t so far away, I think.
— On the Mic (4 out of 5 stars)
There’s a genuine sense of adventure to it all, even when the destination is questionable, and the route is decidedly turbulent. She’s on the right flight path, no matter where these misadventures may take her.
