Confession (WIP)

“Birmingham’s answer to Miss Honey”, Ciara O’Connor is bringing the second work-in-progress showing of her first solo hour to Houblon as part of Kings Heath Comedy Festival.

Having performed on a range of historic and prestigious stages such as Top Secret Comedy Club, The Clapham Grand and… The Fox, O’Connor is an emerging voice with writing that has appeared on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK.

Confession shares a very young and thin woman’s reflections on an Irish Catholic upbringing, queer coming of age, and important questions such as “why do we dedicate benches to dead people?”.

“A voice that we need to hear, her story is an important story” (Jen Brister)

“A brilliant humour, gloriously funny” (Zoe Lyons)

“She’s f*cking brilliant” (Danny Beard)
