I was going to say still... “anonymous and barren”, but that sounded too harsh 🤣 you’d only get it if you knew my follow up show was meant to be called Famous with a Baby ❤️

Besides I am neither of these things! I am very happy team and coming across WWBD again has really got me feeling the love.

Every Edinburgh Fringe there are papers saying they’re looking for “the new Fleabag”. But Fleabag became a TV juggernaut. Edinburgh is about LIVE. Visceral. In the room.

You wanna know what came the year before? And where party girl, heart on your sleeve stand-up started?

What Would Beyoncé Do?!

Netflix won’t make the documentary, so I have! 😂 To be fair I think its probably the most self indulgent thing I have ever done, but I have concussion, time and memories.

12pm tomorrow on my YouTube channel. Come and see how I created it. And if you are in Edinburgh this year, REVEL IN IT, don't be the next anything, people are sheep, be The First YOU!!!

Big love ❤️

Facebook subscribers. Thank you! It is genuinely lovely of you to subscribe but I want you to get more for your money...

Patreon is the place to do that.

It's basically a Netflix subscription, but to me. Luisa. HELLO (i need a jingle)

Patreon is where I can share my work, experiment with new ideas and build things directly with you. It's also a huge part of the reason I've been able to take the time I need to heal. And in this downtime, I've been creating my God Is a Woman Book Club, doing live streams and making new work, all of that is possible because of Patreon.

So if you're thinking of subscribing to me here, do consider signing up there instead. You essentially buy me a coffee a month, and that not only lets me continue creating and sharing my work with you, but you can also get free tickets to live shows, merch, DM me and get first dibs on things I do.

Only if you're in a position to, obviously. I LOVE that this page is growing, hello, 327k of you! CRAZY talk.

You are making "one of the most influential comedians to come out of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the last 15 years" very happy. 🤣🥰

I LOVE the community I am building. Creating outside the lines. ❤️

Hope this is clearer and helps.

New comics doing their first Edinburgh fringe. Listen to Mummy, I want to hear you shout about how good the show is and why audiences should spend their time seeing you over how much struggle it has taken to get there. Do things in the right order. Make the show exceptional, undeniable and then talk about the process. Quality. We want quality. Many people cannot afford to go to Edinburgh with exceptional talent. So once you are there, show em what you are made of.

Hey, enjoy yourself.
A throw back to a classic.

(The long bit, if we are seeing images or starved bodies from Hollywood to war, it is perhaps densitising. It is not normal. Couple that with the food supplies, the climate, my concern is we are being trained to accept things as normal and not fight it all as man made greed. I know I know, stick to the funny Luisa, not everything is political, but they have made it so it is. Love yourself. Love others and look after each other.)

After James Acaster and Barrys economics said I was one of the most influential comedian from their generation, What Would Beyonce Do?! Has re- entered a stand up comedy specials chart on YouTube.

The idea of a heart on your sleeve woman centred comedy show was not such a thing at the time, this was pre Girls, pre Fleabag, pre Nanette.

I have had one agent my entire career who I loved and still deeply respect that was over 12 years ago.
I have been an independent stand up comedian ever since who has survived thanks to a direct relationship with my audiences. I am overwhelmed with the deep gratitude for shout out and for the love that a 14 year old underground hit is still getting.

If you are heading up to the Edinburgh fringe festival go and take a punt on something unknown that has zero press but great word of mouth.

Thank you and yes I am naked. My lil brain is so chuffed and grateful. The world needs your gift. Share it. Love you. Bye. ❤️❤️❤️

Sharing because I want to. The whole bit. And because as a stand up, being referenced like this by your super talented male peers as a woman in comedy is gorgeous and means so much more than a review could ever. For those of you going up to Ed fringe again or for the first time, have a magical time. And rave about it. Rave about yours. Rave about others. I wish you all my 2012 & 2014. ❤️🤣

Go watch Barry's Economics.

You should check out Barry's Economics on YouTube. Your girl gets name-checked as one of the most influential comedians to come out of Edinburgh Fringe by James Acaster... and for promoting herself online! 😂

Hahah. I just say what I see lols. So much love to James and Barry. This is so gorgeous and humbling to hear from my peers, I am honoured to be included in such an important conversation about meritocracy, recognition, art and access. Barry has loads of them.

Go follow and catch it all.

I've been a comedian since I was 15 and in that time I've watched s...
