EDFRINGE EXTRAS: BONUS 10. CONNIE WOOKEY

CONNIE WOOKEY is a musical comedian who has spent time performing both in the US and the UK. Described as ‘one to watch’, she has a quite incredible story to tell at this years Edinburgh Fringe. We chat about her Edfringe show, The US circuit compared to the circuit in London and how she goes about writing for a festival. It’s a really lovely chat with the backdrop of an horrific and scarily coincidental real life event. More than one to watch, she is one to go and see as soon as you can.  DENIED: In February my cousin died in a plane crash. I flew to the funeral. My plane stopped working mid-flight. Good... This is a true story. Not sponsored by Air Canada. Award-winning music-comedy. Part stand-up, part musical parody, part storytelling, Wookey covers US visa immigration issues, men who wink at waitresses, and malfunctioning planes. ***** (StagedoorApp.com). **** (LondonTheatre1.com). **** (TheatreBox.blog). **** (WithinHerWords.co.uk). This five-star, fresh and inventive music-comedy is 'superbly performed' (AYoungerTheatre.com) and promises to make you laugh, cry and build your own miniature plane.  TICKETS: https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/connie-wookey-denied  TWITTER: https://twitter.com/constancewookey
