Award-winning comedian brings her secret doctor life to the stage
Edinburgh Fringe hit and Perth Comedy Festival winner "Skeletons" is coming to London's Soho Theatre on June 24 and 25 for just two nights.
The one-woman show from writer and comedian Kirsty Mann reveals the hilarious true story of her double life as both a doctor and a performer.
For years, Mann kept her medical career a secret, fearing it would undermine her credibility as a comedian and actress. But now she's finally ready to spill all the gory details and skeletons in her closet through hilarious storytelling and vivid character work.
"Skeletons" takes audiences behind the curtain and scrubs of Mann's dual careers, from ill-fated affairs with arrogant doctor lovers to nearly having to reveal her medical training to save her wild, accident-prone best friend's life on vacation. The charismatic performer also sheds light on the emotional toll of being a frontline NHS worker during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The award-winning show has received rave reviews from critics following sellout runs at top comedy festivals. Don't miss this look at one woman's madcap attempt to have it all by living a complicated double life.
Catch Skeletons at Soho Theatre's Upstairs space on June 24 and 25 at 8:45pm. Tickets are available now.
