Book NowAbout the show
Comedian Chloe Jacobs takes audiences back to the year 2009, when she and her eleven-year-old friends became obsessed with Twilight in Slough, Berkshire. The obsession led them to write Daughters of Volterra, a thirty-thousand-word self-insert erotic fanfiction. This free 60-minute comedy show at the Bar explores what makes a superfan, what compels us to write, and the fevered imaginings of a vampire-obsessed youth. Categorised as LGBTQ+ and neurodiversity-led, it is suitable for audiences aged 18 and above.
Why see this show?
A very specific obsession turned into genuinely funny storytelling — Twilight fanfiction written at age eleven, revisited with an adult comic eye. Niche, personal and clearly absurd in the best way.
