About Show And Tell
Comedian Jacqueline Novak brings a solo stand-up show to Monkey Barrel at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where each night she defends her grand theory of everything — a theory subject to revision. Ideas must earn their place again and again; some truths recur, some won't survive the night. The performance shifts, but the conviction doesn't. Novak received an Emmy nomination for her Netflix special Get On Your Knees. This 60-minute show is suitable for ages 14 and over and contains strong language.
Why see this show?
Jacqueline Novak's show is stand-up as philosophical exercise — each performance lives or dies on the night. If you enjoy comedy that commits fully to its own ideas, this is a singular hour worth seeking out.
