About Broads in the Attic
Broads in the Attic is a comedy variety show featuring Celia and Mavis (played by Diana Aydin and Mikayla Sherfy), two eccentric old NYC characters who secretly live in an Edinburgh attic and may have killed their husband. The show follows their search for a third roommate, interviewing comedians and audience members for the coveted spot. Sketch, improv and character comedy collide across 60 minutes at Just the Attic, with the audience casting the deciding vote. Suitable for audiences aged 16 and over.
Why see this show?
Audience members don't just watch – they vote on who moves in. An interactive mix of sketch, improv and character work from two performers playing a pair of memorably unhinged roommates, this is a 60-minute show that genuinely depends on who shows up.
