Maisie Adam: Whatsherface

Maisie Adam brings her new show Whatsherface to The Stables on Friday 6 November, part of a UK tour that set off in September. It's her first time in Milton Keynes this run, and it's a proper stand-up set rather than a festival spot.

If you've come across her work, you'll know where she comes from. She's a regular on Mock The Week and a Taskmaster winner, and she's built her following on observational comedy and characters drawn from all walks of life. Whatsherface is the brand new show she's taking around the country, and it arrives with her trademark wit, firecracker gags and probably a few angry outbursts. The Evening Standard called her "a complete comedy natural, currently at the top of her game", while The Daily List described her as "a tall, chaotic one with the weird hair" — a description handed down by her best friend's mum at a wedding this year.

Behind the scenes, the show is presented by Mick Perrin worldwide in association with PBJ Management. It's suitable for ages 16 and over, so it's one for the adults rather than a family night out. The tour has been on the road since September, so by the time it reaches us in November, the material will have had a few months to bed in.

It's on Friday 6 November at 8:00pm in the Jim Marshall Auditorium at The Stables, Stockwell Lane, Wavedon, MK17 8LU. Tickets are £27.50 including the booking fee.
