SOHO VERY EXCITING THEATRE NEWS!

25 Sep

HELLO PEOPLE OF BIRTHDAY

After a pretty chilled out September (Rose went to Portugal, Camille went to America, Beattie stayed in her bedroom), we are back! Refreshed. Revitalised. Ready to comedy.

AND WE HAVE EXCITING NEWS TO TELL YOU (no, none of us are pregnant).

We are doing a run of PARTY VIBES at London’s SOHO THEATRE!!!

Photographed by the wow wow wow Sarah Cresswell

Photographed by the wow wow wow Sarah Cresswell

This December we will perform our super-fun smash-hit show PARTY VIBES for five nights only and WE NEED YOU THERE (otherwise we’ll look really pathetic and stupid which is the worst way to look in the festive season).

Bring your colleagues and get drunk on the back row, bring your friends and learn all our dance moves, bring your Gran and explain all the jokes to her in a really loud whisper. Whoever you bring we promise we will have the best and most rewarding time of our lives!

A humongous thank you to everyone who came to see PARTY VIBES at Cowgatehead at the Edinburgh Fringe this August. Even though our venue looked like a crack den and  had no toilet backstage for our nervous pre-show poos we managed to cram over a hundred of you in every night. So THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. We wouldn’t have got this run without you. Now please go forth and preach PARTY VIBES to the world.

Here’s the link to book tickets which you will obviously do RIGHT NOW!

CLICK ME NOW FOR TICKETS!

P.S. CLICK HERE for our gigs page to see if we are bringing PARTY VIBES to a place near you!

Scotland Comedy Fringe

14 Aug

Fans, friends, enemies. It’s going great here in Scotland, Edinburgh. The sun shines for seventy hours a day, the locals have taken us into their hearts and their homes (for just £3,000p/m) and the streets are paved with haggis. It stinks. It’s a health hazard. I don’t know why they would use haggis instead of concrete, it doesn’t make any sense.

Our shows have been going really well. We are having to turn people away at the door, because we don’t want it to be our fault if someone dies of being squashed. We don’t know why so many come. It must be because our venue looks like a crack den. Comedy fans love crack so much. It could also be because of how safe it is and they want to feel safe… NAAAHT

IMG_2444(But actually now it’s fine and all the problems have been ironed out and no one has died of falling through a floor hole or electrocution.)

IMG_2447

 

So if you happen to be in Scotland Edinburgh Fringe Festival then come and see our show, Birthday Girls: Party Vibes, at Cowgatehead space 6 at 10pm every night. Come every night. Also BREAKING NEWS we’ve added an extra show! Friday the 15th at 11:30pm. We’ll be so tired it’ll be so much more fun!

 

Love you

NEW YEAR (ISH), NEW FILM (SHORT)

23 Jan
Valentine

Happy kind of nearly the end of January! Hasn’t it been DEPRESSING? No. No? WHY NOT? Because we have been eating cake and drinking gin and putting off our new year’s resolutions till the middle of the year dummies.

That pic is a still from a short film we did called Valentine, directed by the uber-cool and talented Kate Herron with Rob Savage DOP’ing the shit out of it.

It’s on at the London Comedy Film Festival this Sunday with a load of other shorts and you can get tix and info by clicking HERE.

WHAAAAT? It’s on at the cinema at 11am on a SUNDAY morning? Chill out guys. It’s just like being locked in at school over night. It will feel wrong and bad and exciting and dangerous and ultimately we’ll all feel glad we experienced it.

Here’s a link to an interview Kate did for Shooting People about the film and other bits…CLICK ME!

Hope to see you there!

P.S. We are doing a new material night VERY soon! INFO HERE!
