About Kat Higgins
In Memory of Me is Kat Higgins's sharp storytelling stand-up debut, performed at Nic 9 (Nicolson Square Gardens). With Irish charm and cutting wit, Kat explores Catholic guilt, sibling rivalry and the sainthood of the dead — because being the favourite child is impossible when your competition is a literal angel. She made her television debut on BBC One and BBC Three as part of the BBC New Comedy Awards and won the Chortle Hotshots bursary award. The show runs 60 minutes and is suitable for ages 14 and over.
Why see this show?
An honest, funny debut about family, grief and Catholic guilt from a comic already marked out for attention. Kat Higgins turns the impossible subject of a dead sibling into something warm, sharp and entirely her own.
