About IAM
Presented by IAM, Lou Wall brings this new hour of musical comedy and multimedia storytelling to Monkey Barrel 4. The show is a comedic investigation into the baffling absence of tall old women — diving head first into questions of height, heritage and what it truly means to live large. Described as 'a comedy whirlwind', Lou was nominated for Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2025. Running for 60 minutes, suitable for ages 16 and over. Tickets from £9.
Why see this show?
Lou Wall turns a brilliantly absurd premise — where are all the tall grandmas? — into a sharp and genuinely funny hour at Monkey Barrel. Musical, multimedia, and completely unhinged, this is the kind of unique Fringe show that's impossible to replicate.
