Description

Social media sensation and Chortle Award winner Rosie Holt debuts an hour of character comedy based on her hit satirical videos. A right-wing "opinionist" distorting the news, an MP desperately defending a failing government, a left-winger wanting to say the right thing but scared of getting it wrong. These characters and more come together when their creator accidentally becomes the news, as they try to speak their truth whatever the facts. 'If she can stay in character long enough, she'll have a Telegraph column and a seat on Question Time by teatime' (James O'Brien).

This is a very, very clever show. Subtle, mischievous and charming. A strong delivery through topical characters informing the current debate.

Voice Magazine (3/5 stars) 4 days ago

The Woman’s Hour is a wonderful whirlwind of an hour full of satire and political poking from all directions

Lost in Theatreland (5/5 stars) 7 days ago

This is character comedy at its finest. Each character is unique and distinct, which is no mean feat. Holt’s political debates with herself and the ending, which is an inception of sorts, are comedic genius.
