Press & Reviews

“Chelsea is funny, so funny, without dumbing down her intelligence. I always
look forward to what she’s doing. She’s brilliant.” Laura Lexx
‘Onw to watch.’ Funny Women

‘A show I guarantee anyone at the Fringe will enjoy.’ **** Mumble

“There’s a sharp mind behind the sweet exterior. As her writing credits on Mock the Week suggest, she knows how to craft a well-made one-liner. Birkby wins the audience’s affection so thoroughly” **** The Telegraph

“A seriously promising show – deceptively smart, tightly structured, and delivered with chatty charm. Sharply serious – but still somehow silly” **** Fest
Chelsea’s a natural and delivered a show that you’d expect for someone who has been playing Edinburgh for years.” **** RGM

“Both naughty and nice” “Has the feel of a conversation with friends” 4 stars

Her new comedic style has been established as a sort of polite rock star. It’s certainly unusual, but it’s hilarious.
