Stand-up show by Harriet Kemsley about dating, mushrooms and her attempts to be a bit of a floozy.
Harriet Kemsley brings her new show, Floozy, to the Norwich Theatre Playhouse on Sunday 8 November, starting at 20:00. It's her first time back in the city since her appearance on Last One Laughing UK, and the set is a fresh one.
As the title suggests, the show turns on dating, mushrooms, and Kemsley's own best efforts to be a bit of a floozy. It's a new tour, so this is a first look at the material she's been working on since Last One Laughing put her in the spotlight. If you've followed her work, you'll recognise the same sort of self-deprecating, conversational style she's known for, but here it's built around these three particular threads: the chaos of modern dating, a detour into mushrooms, and the ongoing project of trying to be a bit more adventurous than she actually is.
The Playhouse is a good fit for this kind of thing—small enough that the room stays tight, which works in your favour when the comedy is this personal. It's a single-act night, so Kemsley carries the whole evening herself, and the set is built around her own stories rather than a series of sketches or a supporting line-up. If you're coming from Last One Laughing, this is the full-length version of what you saw there, with the new material given room to breathe.

One thing to keep in mind: the Norwich date is already sold out, so if you're looking for tickets, you'll likely be hunting for returns or keeping an eye on the venue's updates. It's at the Norwich Theatre Playhouse, 42-58 Georges St, NR3 1AB, on Sunday 8 November, with the show starting at 20:00.
