Description

Amy spins a sparkling web of comedy magic between the two states she finds herself caught between – stability and restlessness. She swings between the unbridled joy in the freedom that everything can change and the crawling anxiety that nothing is certain. This is a show about the thrill of falling and the thud of landing. And after a thud comes a laugh. 'Drily funny and giddily quirky' (Scotsman). 'You'd think she'd been doing this for decades' (BroadwayBaby.com). Tour support for Alfie Brown, Jess Fostekew and Rachel Fairburn.

Her show last year was already among my favourite but DAMN did she step up her game! A warm, funny, and clever show on all things ✨life✨; the good, the bad, and the ugly. So well produced, incredible!

Get tickets to see her now! Not just because you will have a fantastic time, but also that you can smugly say you already saw her at the Fringe 2023 when she inevitably ends up being BIG!

Broadway Baby (5/5 stars) 118 days ago

I Feel Like I’m Made of Spiders is a very vulnerable, honest and personal hour of comedy, where Matthews shares the details of a low point of her life, but adds levity at every point with her almost Shakespearean asides, creating a very enjoyable and funny comedy hour that should be on everyone’s Fringe list.

Amy Matthews oozed confidence and class from the opening entrance throughout the whole of her hour. She took the gig by the scruff of the neck and never let go.
