It’s only just gone half seven, but the crowd in The Counting House attic is already pretty rowdy. In less experienced hands, the well-meaning but boisterous group on the front row could spell disaster, but it’s perfect fodder for Kirsty Munro. She takes immediate control, and soon has the worst offenders up on stage dancing, and eating out of her metaphorical hands. It’s a great opening, and sets the tone for the next 50 minutes. Munro’s confidence and joyous exuberance is infectious, and her first few minutes of establishing crowd work actually provides some of the best moments of the show.

The show is loose – sometimes distractingly so – but the theme and atmosphere of ‘2 Slut Drops and a Chicken Burger’ is never in doubt. You’ll certainly never see a final bucket speech quite like this one.

The “B plot” for Munro’s show – a discussion of mental health – provides some of the strongest comedic material, as well as an opportunity for more long-form storytelling, but it ultimately peters out without a real conclusion. Munro deals with all of it with a deft and light-hearted touch. She treads a fine line of allowing the frequent friendly heckles and general audience contributions that come her way, without outright encouraging them. The show is a body-positive and sex-positive celebration of the word ‘slut’ – a word that Munro is happy to reclaim as an affirmation. Ultimately, the show shies away from any more overtly political or feminist exploration, but it doesn’t really need it. It’s a simple but raucous hour of fun and partying that leave us all feeling ready for the weekend, even if not all of us are capable of the titular dance move just yet. Click Here For Review

Kirsty Munro has created an engaging show with her delightfully naughty stories in Two Slut Drops and a Chicken Burger, making the whole room cringe in the sweetest way possible. From tales ranging from bikini waxing mishaps to hilarious accounts of navigating life with depression. Her high energy and infectious giggles created an atmosphere where everyone let loose and enjoyed the wild ride, she took us on.

The show also had interactive elements, as Munro invited the audience to guess which mental health disorder she is medicated for. This light-hearted yet bold approach set the tone for the rest of the evening. She then regaled us with the hilarious tale of how her trip to a mental hospital turned into an unexpected adventure in Ibiza. Dropping pills and having uncomfortable bathroom encounters with women she had just met—who may have been her nurse—Munro’s candid storytelling had everyone in stitches.

Not one to shy away from personal topics, Munro also opened up about her relationship with her fiancé, particularly their sex life. With a mix of humour and honesty, she recounted their attempts to spice things up with bondage, which somehow ended in a role-play session where she imitated a crab, pinching her fiancé’s bottom while crawling side to side. This bizarre yet hilarious anecdote is a perfect example of Munro’s ability, to make even the most outlandish scenarios feel relatable.

Her quick wit and real-life experiences give her stories a sense of authenticity that resonates, especially with the women in the audience. While the delivery of these stories is anything but conventional—she is bubbly, bold, and utterly unfiltered—Munro’s charm lies in her unapologetic embrace of her quirks. She doesn’t just tell jokes; she shares parts of herself with the audience, making it impossible not to fall in love with her at the end of the night.

By the time the show wrapped up, everyone in the room felt like they were in on a private joke as if their slightly bonkers friend had just gotten up to share a string of crazy stories at the pub. And what can I say about the finale? In a surprising twist, Munro re-enacted a strip tease she once performed for her partner, complete with Britney Spears playing in the background. I didn’t expect a Free Fringe show to end with pink sparkly nipple covers, but I can’t say I was mad about it!

One of the standout aspects of Munro’s performance is her ability to engage with the audience. The participation is just right—not too overwhelming, but enough to make everyone feel involved. Munro has mastered the art of oversharing in the best way possible, making her cringe-worthy yet lovable.

By the end, you’d be more than willing to throw it back and share a chicken burger with her on her next night out. The show not only entertains but makes you feel as though you’ve made a new, albeit quirky, friend. Click Here For Review
