Edinburgh Fringe
Micky Overman: The Precipice
Dutch deadpan in emotional intelligence shocker! Micky Overman's The Precipice feels like an evolutionary leap for an act often associated with tight, merciless circuit ready stand-up. A themed show about relationships, broodiness and the future - these topics tessellate beautifully into each other while never feeling foreign to her caustic sense of humour.
Think about everything that goes through your head when you're about to make a life-altering decision. That's this show. As seen on ITV2 and BBC Three, and with over 12 million views online, Micky is an undeniable rising star whose 'smart observations and snappy one-liners' (TheWeeReview.com) have gained her much critical acclaim. Now she turns her unique perspective to the big questions: will we one day look at Love Island the same way we now look at SeaWorld? Join Micky as she contemplates love, robots and, possibly, motherhood. 'Precision gags and delightfully silly one-liners' (Observer).
