This isn’t just stand-up – it’s an emotional ride, wrapped up in wit, charm and the occasional 7 foot man with a raw chicken!”
British Theatre Guide

Hi, hope you’re ok. My show is about hope. It’s also about mental illness, good liars, bad ideas, Lorraine Kelly and a gang lord forcing me to hold a raw chicken. But it’s mostly about hope. I live with a complex mental illness called borderline personality disorder (BPD) and I started writing this, about that, in January 2020. It’s been a long 5 years, but I’m finally here. Please come. I wrote it for you.

A tender mix of comedy and storytelling where the humour is soft, unhurried and all the more powerful for it. Ultimately, this is a show about hope and why it’s absolutely worth holding on to.”

The honesty is startling, and potent. IT IS UTTERLY NOT S**T’”
