Copy event details

A glistening diamond hour of stand-up from “delusional trans comedian” Sam Nicoresti about love, insanity, and the hunt for the perfect skirt suit. Following a critical maelstrom of success at the Edinburgh Fringe, and three weeks of sold-out performances at London’s Soho Theatre, Sam finally brings an extended and revamped version of her breakout hit show Baby Doomer to the great unwashed (i.e. goes on tour). From getting stuck in a dress in a TK Maxx to finding love between the standing stones of Cornwall, through sperm banks, Lord of the Rings figurines, and queer cat names, Sam Nicoresti examines life's most vital question: can you ever hope to find the perfect skirt suit?

Baby Doomer is the follow-up to the acclaimed Wokeflake. “One of the definitive documents of the trans experience in stand-up.” Chortle. 

“Baby Doomer is one of the sharpest, funniest, most exciting hours of comedy at the Fringe” ★★★★★ The Telegraph 

“Uproariously funny, life-affirming, angry, dumb, insightful and political all at once” ★★★★.5 Chortle ★★★★★ The List ★★★★★ One4Review ★★★★ The Guardian  

★★★★ The Times ★★★★ The Scotsman ★★★★ Fest ★★★★ Three Weeks 

★★★★ The Skinny
