Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Appropriate Adult - review
Appropriate Adult is one of the best examples of autobiographical comedy exploring deeply personal topics without any self-pity and ensuring that the jokes flow thick and fast so that the audience can accept the bitterness as part of the comedy.

Kevin Ibbotson-Wight, The Wee Review, 19th May 2018Kiri Pritchard-McLean: Appropriate Adult review
She's skilful, she's entertaining, she's very funny in that way that makes you laugh at something you never thought you'd find funny, and she's a bit inspiring, sending us all out into the chill night with an agitation scratching at our social conscience. A class act.

British Comedy Guide, 7th February 2018Review: Gein's Family Giftshop, Soho Theatre
At its best this is a rollercoaster ride of a comedy show. You simply don't know what is going to happen next, which is rare in comedy and makes them really exciting. There are themes here - sex, violence, death mainly - but even when they do an obligatory airport security routine it comes from decidedly left field.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 6th February 2018Kiri Pritchard-McLean: I feel very guilty doing comedy
When most stand-up comedians talk about their first gigs, they remember a sense of queasy apprehension and a painfully silent room. Kiri Pritchard-McLean, on the other hand, recalls being so "arrogant" that she was apparently immune to nerves.
