2022 Edinburgh Fringe
Danielle Walker: Nostalgia
Danielle Walker takes her family albums and home videos and weaves magic from them. The greatest comedy comes from truth and Danielle finds plenty of it in this show, fresh from success at home in Australia.
This show is a scrapbook of memories about my family. Two of them have smelt a Bigfoot. One has seen it. They all agree on a military cover-up. I couldn't get home for two years and had this anxiety that someone in my family would die and I wouldn't have enough to remember them by. It's relatable comedy to country people and absurd comedy to city people. 2022 Melbourne International Comedy Festival Most Outstanding Show nominee and Pinder Prize winner. 'Peculiar unworldliness, with a winning, contradictory mix of fragility and resilience' **** (Chortle.co.uk).
