Sublime

Before Nanette made her big splash in 2018, I already had eight hour-long stand-up comedy shows sitting in my oeuvre, and four comedy-adjacent art history lectures, so I don’t think not being able to snag a set at Caroline’s on Broadway has held me back at all.

The show may not be funny, but you can’t accuse me of not knowing how to read a room.

am what you could call a “festival comic,” which means I am something of a long-form comic. I don’t build sets by stacking jokes one on top of the other, I shape shows out of interconnecting material that is designed to pull an audience through a cohesive hour-long experience.

Laughter is rarely benign, but it is often malicious.

I can recognise that Mum was not always the right target, she was just the easy one.
