I Am Claire Parry (Very Funny Stand-Up)

A stand-up turns up to stand-up...and does anything but stand-up.

Ego, victimhood, identity, and the hostile state of the arts clash centre stage as a joyously

stupid melee of clowning, mime, and original songs burst onto the scene in a show that does not - and cannot - tick the correct boxes.

An absurd clown-mime-original-songs show brought to you in an absurd arts crisis by

critically acclaimed Lecoq-trained clown Claire Parry.

Claire Parry is an alumni of Soho Theatre Labs, was nominated for the Artist Choice

Award at Vault Festival and runner-up for the Funny Women Comedy Shorts Award with

her short film Pitchlash.
