Description

There will be blood. Literally. Not like 'Oooh Daniel Day-Lewis' because this isn't his story. It's Marjolein's. Talking about body stuff, specifically blood. Which everyone knows is the most hilarious fluid known to man. This is not gore for gore's sake. This show has the potential to save lives. Also: jokes. No 3 in The List Hot 100 (only two left to kill). Independent’s top 10 best comedy shows of 2023. ‘Impish… upbeat, able to mine an everyday observation to almost absurdist lengths’ ***** (List). ‘Remember the name. This is a star in the making’ ***** (One4Review.co.uk).

One4Review (4.5/5 stars) 42 days ago

Robertson has once again crafted an excellent show, a performance that is cheeky at times, delightfully written and captivating delivered throughout. The melding of Shetland Folk lore with her own story, once again works and she has a wicked sense of humour with laughs a plenty as we have come to expect.

“It’s powerful, bizarre, and hilarious in equal measure. Marjolein Robertson’s star isn’t rising, it has risen.”

This is a strongly written, expertly and often playfully delivered show from a comedian who knows how to tell stories.
