I have been mad busy doing lots of things so I have not been updating this blog. I am sorry. Anyway, here is a run-down of what I’ve been up to.
On Sunday I saw the Showstoppers. I’ve done improv before but I am always blown away by these guys. On the night I saw them they did a musical set inside the human body. Everyone was great but Ruth Bratt always stands out for me, every time I’ve seen them. She played a lung that was basically Marilyn Monroe. So fringe.
I did a lil’ old guest spot in Pollyanna on Monday, singing Avril Lavigne’s Sk8er Boi to the tune of I Dreamed A Dream, dressed as Susan Boyle. Obviously. Yesterday (Tuesday) I hosted a show called 50/50 (not the children’s gameshow), celebrating gender equality and diversity, looking like this:
It was a great time, and if you’re in London in the future, definitely go go go.
Yesterday I took my parents to see Harriet Braine (again lol) and it was the best I’ve seen it. My favourite joke:
“We’ll go to Spain to finish off. Like all good white Brits”
I also saw Denim, the drag supergroup. I was liking it, but when Electra Cute started singing Rise Like a Phoenix, I started loving it. I want to know where she gets her hair from. Also her voice. They were both beautiful.
We’re about halfway through the Fringe now. I’m having a great time. I haven’t had any reviews yet but people have been really nice on the internet. Real people. How exciting.
