About this show
A glistening swan-song for the triumphant Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Show 2025. A swaggering, diamond-sharp hour about being trans (uh-oh) and the hunt for the perfect skirt suit. 'Uproariously funny, life-affirming, angry, dumb, insightful and political all at once' (Chortle.co.uk). Nominated for Most Outstanding Show at Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2026, Best Show at Leicester Comedy Festival 2025, and NextUp's Biggest Award in Comedy 2025. * (Telegraph). * (List). * (BingeFringe.com). * (One4Review.co.uk). ½ (Chortle.co.uk).
