2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Maisie Adam: Vague
Millennial coming-of-age stories from a natural raconteur - Maisie Adam's show takes us from rural Yorkshire to metropolitan Brighton via her first experiences of festivals and chaotic clubbing holidays with mates.
18 months ago, Maisie decided to try stand-up comedy. Within a year, she won the biggest stand-up comedy newcomer competition (becoming the fourth woman to have done so in its 30 years), opened for major comedians, and claimed a Best New Comedy nomination at Brighton Fringe. In her debut, the northerner and self-confessed "Slave to the Sesh" relays her experiences of navigating the recklessness of youth whilst dealing with a medical condition that requires you to be a "Sensible Susan". Winner: So You Think You're Funny? 2017. 'Exudes an appealing, quirky energy... clearly a natural wit' (Chortle.co.uk).
