About this Event
Sharon could have had functioning relationships, probably. But with hindsight and a crucial piece of wisdom shared by her mother – she finds out exactly why the odds were so stacked against her. Throw a medical misdiagnosis (her mothers), a kidnapping (hers) and a fantasy movie produced by Ryanair into the mix and reality starts to get real.
‘I Know a Guy’, nominated for Best Debut (ISH/Jones Award) at Edinburgh Fringe 2024, takes a fun and light-hearted look at the things which define us and the darker stuff we would much rather ignore.
"Her comedy chops are undeniable: lean writing, immaculate timing, and an eye for the absurd that’s razor-sharp. The material is strong, the performance pitch-black perfect, and the audience are with her every step. What makes Sharon stand out is the way she blends personal storytelling with a touch of theatrical craft." One4Review ★★★★
"Honed close to perfection...exceptionally clever...what a bloody story!" Fringe Review ★★★★★
“Hilarious hour of fun filled anecdotes...pro at finding a wonderful brightness in dark times...she shows a perfect vulnerability" Theatre Scotland ★★★★
Amsterdam-based Irish comedian Sharon Em is returning to Edinburgh with her show, which takes a light-hearted, layered and well-crafted look at a family secret that, when revealed, made Sharon think very differently about her own life, relationships and how she dealt with some stuff!
