Rachel Fairburn's Showgirl special now on YouTube
Following the success of her Showgirl UK tour, which was extended due to popular demand and included a show at Manchester's iconic Opera House, Rachel Fairburn has now released the show as a special on YouTube.
Produced and distributed by 800 Pound Gorilla, the special was recorded in what Fairburn proudly calls "one of the best places on Earth", Blackpool.
The blurb explains: "Rachel takes the stage for her stand-up special Showgirl with her signature razor-sharp wit and unapologetic honesty. From the epidemic of air fryer enthusiasts (a group she controversially lumps in with murderers and sex offenders) to the absurdity of unqualified men holding court in rooms full of expert women, nothing is off-limits.
"She reflects on her journey into comedy (thanks to a Labour initiative), the trials of being a working class comedian in a world obsessed with Oliver Bonas, and her sieve-like relationship with money. With OCD making houseguests a personal nightmare and shyness making her comedy career an unlikely twist, Rachel delivers a show that's both hilariously self-aware and scathingly insightful. She may look like she's wearing Liberace's pajamas, but she's here to set a few things straight - before she inevitably retreats to the countryside, surrounded by joss sticks and taxidermy."
