It's What She Would Have Wanted

It's What She Would Have Wanted

$34.00

05 - 09 Sep | 55 minutes Emerging Artist Sharehouse - The Office
SHOW IS RATED: M15+

Nicky Barry is a much-loved comedy powerhouse and storyteller par excellence. Come join her for a blistering hour of standup about her journey on the ruinous road to here.

Nicky Barry was raised to be a quite, compliant catholic young lady. She is now a brazen stand-up comedian with a razor-sharp wit and a potty mouth. How she came to here is a tale both hilarious and deeply moving.

It's What She Would Have Wanted is a rollicking tale about repressive catholic school, bold ambition, failed contraception, big nights out and undying love.

This is a very special show about standing up and standing out, inspired by the love of the best friend a wantonly wicked woman could ever have.

She’s warm, funny, unpretentious and relatable, especially when it comes to stories about making an arse of yourself when drunk on a girls’ night out. Arts Hub https://www.artshub.com.au/news/reviews/comedy-review-nicky-barry-its-what-she-would-have-wanted-2546932/
