Anyone who came along to "Mother Bored" (w.i.p) please consider leaving a small reveiw/ comment on any of my pages to help me with reaching more audiences/ opportunities in future & also open to feedback for improving what was a first development. Thanks in advance xx
Thanks & huge well done to all the team at Glasgow International Comedy Festival, what an amazing festival!๐๐ฅ๐๐
I had a brilliant experience putting on my own mixed-media work-in-progress, where I greatfully filled 80 seats at The Old Hairdressers, then performing with Zara Gladman and Friends at รran Mรณr for 2 sold out 250 seaters in her unique, mixed-media musical comedy extravaganza. ๐๐ฅ๐ต๐ญ๐ค๐ฅ๐
The cherry on top for me was getting to enjoy a night of comedy legends at where I saw all the Scottish nominees for The Sir Billy Connoly Award. Zara, who was a nominee for the Sir Billy Connolly Award also kindly projecting my gaint mug ๐ onto the screen for a wee bit of her character act "West End Mum" along with a section of her Oran Mor show ๐
Watched hilarious sets by all the nomineess and some other brilliant visiting acts to the fest, such as one of my faves Kiri Pritchard-McLean and the evening was hosted by Susie Mccabe who won the Award ๐ฅ๐๐๐ฅ !๐
And a very moving speech broadcast from the big yin himself ๐คฏ๐
Elaine C Smith also spoke & made a great point about Glasgow being not only the funniest city (sorry to my native Edinburgh but I lived in Glasgow for 12 years and it's hard to disagree!!)but also the amount of female comedy talent that comes from the city ! ๐ฅ
Huge respect to everyone involved in running this massive and diverse festival, hope you all enjoy a good rest/ hangover๐๐ ๐ฅ๐
Couple of phone photos from "Zara Gladman and Friends" at wher I played Edinburgh Morningside Mum, Sandra and a landlord. 2 brilliant sold out shows, well done Zara!
