Kate-Lois Elliott: TRAD (Work in Progress); Riverside Studios; 24th October; from £6.50
After a sell-out Edinburgh debut & tour, award-winning comedian and storyteller Kate-Lois Elliott is working on a brand new show.
Kate never did things the conventional way. She never expected to get married. Now it’s happened, she wants to win at it, but as a modern career-obsessed millennial, she’s wondering how anyone finds the time?
Now she’s unpacking the contradictions of modern life, the pressure to do it all (and enjoy it), and asking, ‘Why is the world suddenly obsessed with TikTok Trad Wives? Are they evil? How do I get my garden looking like that?’…
This is a show for anyone who’s ever wondered whether to lean in, burn it all down, or just take up cross-stitch and see what happens.
