‘TWERK IN PROGRESS’
Hotly-tipped stand-up starlet, ABI ROBERTS jerks, twerks and acts like a berk in this her debut solo stand-up show TWERK IN PROGRESS. Like a shot of neat vodka in the eyeball, expect mayhem, stealth feminism at it’s finest, pot noodles and Putin. Comedy with heart, soul and more than a little mischief from the Caitlin Moran of stand-up comedy.
“Raucous!” – Daily Telegraph. “Brilliant, funny and charming….even with a mind-bogglingly A-list industry in attendance. True genius. ” – James Mullinger, Comedy Editor, GQ Magazine.
