Shirley Knot the Siren – Comedy
November 19, 2024 @ 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM
Winner of Hot Ticket award at Halifax Fringe Festival 2023
After a successful run at the Good to Go Festival and Theatre Deli, one-woman show; Shirley Knot the Siren performs at The Libra Theatre Café 19th November for one night only.
Shirley Knot (aka Debbie Bridge) is a captivating musical comedy shining a light on Shirley Knot, a vivacious older mermaid navigating the complexities of an underwater society that often overlooks her and no longer ‘sees’ her.
“A sublime voice and beautifully executed role … amazing” The Stage
Shirley is a gal from the New York shores, bringing you some of her New York antics in classic cabaret style, but with a slight operatic twist. Through a delightful fusion of comedy, music and poignant storytelling, the show delves into Shirley’s quest for joy and visibility in a world that is fast leaving her behind.
The show is a celebration of resilience, empowerment and the unbreakable spirit of older women everywhere. With its catchy tunes, witty dialogue and message of self-love and acceptance, it leaves audiences uplifted and inspired, reminding us that joy knows no age limits.
“… linked together through songs, shows tunes, comic songs and opera. What is remarkable is Shirley’s voice. Powerful, emotive and clear, from the first notes of the first song …” Fringe Review
