Google Kathleen HughesAbout Kathleen Hughes
Kathleen Hughes is a Glaswegian comic presenting a work-in-progress show called Twig at The Waverley. The show is a solo stand-up set exploring family, legacy and personal identity — examining why she is the way she is. Having debuted at the Fringe previously with Cryptid!, she returns to develop new material in front of a live audience. The show runs for 60 minutes and is for ages 18 and over, with strong language throughout.
Why see this show?
A chance to see new material from a Glaswegian comic in its rawest form — honest, funny and still being shaped. If you enjoy stand-up that feels genuinely personal rather than polished, this work-in-progress is well worth catching.
