August 12, 2024 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix 3 Comments

It was Birdy’s first time seeing Canadian comedian Glenn Wool, and she took a comfy seat in the front row at The Counting House to hear about his relationship woes.

Review: My Mother Doesn’t Know I’m Kinky, Fringe 2024

August 9, 2024 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix 1 Comment

Birdy decided on the spur of the moment, to say ‘yes’ to this show, having met the affable Jean Franzblau herself whilst waiting to get into the show right before this one. It was eye-opening!

Review: 99 Red Hot Kitties and a Cockatoo, Fringe 2024

August 9, 2024 by Bronwen Winter Phoenix Leave a Comment

It was well into Fringe, and Birdy had seen nowhere near enough burlesque – thankfully, there were 99 Red Hot Kitties and a Cockatoo to the rescue!
