About this show
Mary Floppins has cracked the sh*ts. Wipe the wee from the toilet seat and pick up your dirty undies, because the perfect nanny is back to teach all you little boys – and girls – a thing or two about running a prim and proper household. Hailed 'a rising star and quadruple threat' (TheSpyInTheStalls.com) and returning after a completely sold-out Edinburgh Fringe run in 2025, Jessica Barton combines a spoonful of song, dance, clowning and deep-cleaning to present a skanky and empowering comedy debut. Newly directed by Dan Wye.
