Party: Kiri Pritchard McLean - Hysterical Woman
Main page > Burning Duck Comedy Club > Kiri Pritchard McLean - Hysterical Woman
Chortle Award-nominated comedian Kiri Pritchard McLean performs her inadvisably ambitious debut hour, tackling genetics, gender and being a comedian who happens to be a woman. Also, she sticks her white, middle class nose into racial inequality. (I know, it has nothing to do with her, but she won't be told.) Join her for an hour of whipsmart stand-up that's as funny as it is clever – or turn up to see if she commits an accidental hate crime. 'One to look out for' (Leicester Mercury). Tour support: Justin Moorhouse. Writer/director Gein's Family.
"Passionate, smart and yes, bloody funny, there’s a raw depth of
feeling here that you won’t find in many shows and it really should be the final word on the subject" The Scotsman
"In this bold show, Pritchard-McLean explains how women seldom get to appear alongside other women in comedy clubs, and how all-female bills get called “Paralympic nights” - She is keenly aware how un-entertaining this risks sounding: it is practically taboo for a
female comic to complain about this stuff. Credit to her, then, for
making a show that’s raucous and good-humoured without stinting on the protest." The Guardian
