Royal and Derngate Theatre 19-21 Guildhall Road, Northampton, Northamptonshire, NN1 1DP

Stevie Martin (Taskmaster, Mitchell & Webb’s brand new sketch show, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, The Horne Section TV Show) has been doing online comedy for a while (45 million views worldwide) but is now returning to live comedy with her latest show, which sold out at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and at Soho Theatre this year. It’s like her online stuff but she’ll be on a stage and you can’t pause her to get a snack (meats?). Also you have to sit in a specific room to watch it (please don’t bring your meats to this room). ???? ‘High-quality gags tightly packed inside other gags, ready to jack-in-the-box out and multiply… Ingenious’ The Guardian ???? ‘Stevie Martin’s densely-packed show peeking behind the curtain of online stardom begs repeat visits… A clever, knowing and, crucially, hilarious, hour’ The Scotsman ???? ‘Successfully brings that online visual hilarity to the stage, via twin immersive screens assaulting your senses with messages from her phone and laptop while Stevie hardly catches breath between gags’ Daily Express
