This is a stand-up split bill with a difference: it’s set in the teen magazine sleepover dream world. Kitty Speed (“Sharp punchlines with excellent stage presence” - Jericho Comedy) has a glittery eye shadow, glittery shorts and glitter all over her framed ADHD diagnosis. Shirley Halse ("Friendly, funny and focused" - The Scotsman) has big hopes, big dreams, and a meddling toddler. Together they are finding their feet in a world that’s less perfect than they were pinky-promised.
Kitty and Shirley will take you cover to cover, from disillusioned to disco. Barbie dreamland meets Jane Austen in Black Mirror. Bring your sleeping bag and a friendship bracelet xoxo.
Kitty Speed’s heartwarming comedy is full of anecdotes and freeing confessionals. As a RADA grad with a storytelling style she brings warmth and laughter to comedy sets focusing on themes of sex positivity, neurodiversity and joyful silliness.
Shirley Halse is a comedian, writer and full time MILF. Sometimes spotted in a double act - literally carrying her toddler comedy partner - she runs The Alternative Book Club and Cygnet Comedy.
