Description
British Writers' Guild Award-nominee Kate-Lois Elliott tells stories that are self-deprecating and (according to a drunk man at the Fringe) unexpectedly profound. A debut WIP about village life, thirty-something existential crises, and finding purpose without joining a cult... (specifically not like Kate's grandma did). Writers' Guild Award nominee, British Comedy Guide Awards finalist, West End New Act finalist. As seen on BBC, Netflix, and London's West End. 'Could sniff the vodka from the plinth' (Helen Lederer). 'Such funny business from this one' (Jessica Fostekew). 'Zeitgeisty' (Dominic King, BBC Radio Kent). 'A rising star' (ScriptAngel.com).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

This show was perfect in some ways. On the surface, for younger generations but it really resonated with me as well (I’m old), and such a clever ending. Loved all the crowd work, and the stuff about the history of storytelling as well as how she wove the story of her mum’s cult into universal tropes of being lost in your 30s (and beyond)… would highly recommend!

Can’t believe that this didn’t get more press! Such a brilliant show. Really loved the narrative - such a relief to see a stand up show that’s not just a bunch of random gags but a seriously thought out story ( with a ton of jokes ) - really glad I got to see it! I absolutely loved the story about the dogs too!

LOVED this, loved it loved it loved it. Such a charming, funny, clever, silly show. Go and see it, it's the best thing I saw at the fringe this year, can't believe she's not more famous!

Clever, relatable, and heartwarming, with genuinely hilarious and self-deprecating crowd work that uplifts the audience. The ground tread may seen familiar, but Kate is so charismatic a guide you won’t mind. A really fun 45 minutes and a definite recommend.
