2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Victim, Complex
Kiri Pritchard-McLean gets great jokes out of emotional trauma. A raw breakup tale from this fast-rising storytelling comic.
You might have seen Kiri on Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, The Russell Howard Hour or heard her on The Now Show. You might have no idea who she is, that's fine too. What you should know is, she's very quietly been going mad for a few years and, to borrow a phrase from Uma Thurman, she's been 'waiting... to feel less angry'. So, it's time to talk about victims, love and lies. You might not believe her, but she's used to that. 'Making powerhouse stand-up from the thorniest of subjects' **** (Guardian).
