Free cocktail and hat included! Jacki Thrapp is a former reporter for The National Enquirer and executive producer of Gianmarco Soresi’s three-time Emmy® nominated stand-up special called Shelf Life on Amazon.

As a fringe performer, this show cut straight to my cynical little heart. Ingenious satire of the highest order. And you get drunk!

I am not sure this show is strictly legal in Scotland, but it is ethical. Delightfully cynical. Buy all the tickets.

America is built on blonde women in crop tops and lululemon leggings getting things done. The type of person you can trust for great business skills. 5 stars

My girl knows what she's talking about! Subversive, joyous, gin-laden-ride & free merch. She even pitches your show. She lays out some inside tidbits on how to beat the system. And, she was SOLD the fu*k OUT people. She's a party and a generous soul. xxx

This was a most splendid evening for the two of us eligible elderly bachelors. You’re definitely in for a shock! But unfortunately not the nude kind… oh well... we live to rave freely another day. As my father once said, Caecilius est in atrio! Xx

Jacki is immensely personable, the sort of person who makes chaos work.
