Mirror Mirror
Once upon a time, in a far away land (Australia), an incredibly young girl thought she'd found her Prince Charming. Instead, she found a man who chipped away at her self-image and moulded her into a Damsel in Distress.
In this darkly funny, sharply honest stand-up show, fairytales meet f*ckboys - as one woman's Disney dream turns to a twisted tale worthy of the Brothers Grimm.
With poisoned apples, magic mirrors, and happily-ever-afters gone horribly wrong, Mirror Mirror blends stand-up, storytelling, and feminist reclamation of fairy tales to unpack the dangers of teaching young girls to believe that one day their Prince will come.
“A future Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Tremendous writing that is hilarious and heartfelt.” - Marcel Blanch-de Wilt
