Grace Mulvey: Gigantica

Presented by Chuckle Busters Grace Mulvey has a massive head. Physically. Not egotistically. (Sure, only men can do that). But unfortunately, it’s her dad’s fault. In Gigantica, directed by Alison Spittle, Grace tackles a question no one else is brave enough to ask: is it an insult to tell a woman she looks like her dad? What starts as a throwaway observation about family resemblance spirals into something bigger. A razor-sharp, warm and deeply funny exploration of identity, inheritance, and what happens when the people who made you start to disappear. From her toddler niece getting a boyfriend before her, to millennial women “going woo woo”, to navigating her dad’s dementia, where her gigantic head becomes the only thing he reliably recognises, Grace blends the personal with the absurd in a way that is both laugh-out-loud funny and quietly devastating. “She may be the finest Irish comedian working in the UK at the moment” ★★★★ One4Review “Grace Mulvey is very, very funny” ★★★★ Entertainment Now “Mulvey strikes the perfect balance between laughter and tenderness” ★★★★½ The Student “Masterfully slick” ★★★★ EdFringeReview “Her writing is razor sharp” ★★★★ One4Review “She is phenomenal” Joanne McNally All tickets include a £1 admin charge Age recommendation: 16+ Approx running time: 1 hour Content warnings: Strong language
