About this show

Brand-new stand-up show from the chaotic mind of a mother of two who is typing this with one hand because the other is always holding someone or something. Michelle Wolf’s show is a hilarious deconstruction of society, gender roles and testicles. Metaphorically. Wolf’s released four stand-up specials across Netflix and HBO to critical acclaim, including a Primetime Emmy nomination. In the UK she has guested on shows such as Have I Got News for You, QI and Would I Lie to You? 'Influential, daring and brilliant' (Rolling Stone). 'Smart and sly' (Guardian).
