2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Alison Spittle: Worrier Princess
Alison got her own TV show in Ireland. She thought all her problems would melt away. Turns out she was wrong. Can Alison get mentally healthy before the show airs and people start calling her Big Momma's House on the internet? No. The show equivalent of jabbing your tongue into a mouth ulcer. Irish Tatler Comedy Woman of the Year. 'A kind of genius' (Irish Times). 'Worrier Princess is a master-class in stand-up comedy' (Meg.ie). Writer and star of Nowhere Fast. 'If you enjoyed, say, Fleabag or Sharon Horgan's stuff, you'll probably love this' (Irish Independent).
