Silly and Surviving

Kie CarsonAmateur Company

45 minutesThe Wee Room
The 2020s have been shit. From cost of living and Covid to deepfakes and doomscrolling, it’s too much to handle. But Kie Carson is Silly and Surviving. In Silly and Surviving, one rising comedy firecracker proves that sillies just won’t pay the billies – but it might save your sanity. Through a queer, working-class lens, Kie unravels absurd thoughts, wild observations and life’s ridiculous struggles with unstoppable charm, fearless honesty and relentless, laugh-out-loud chaos. Kie is 'extremely likable' (Nodding Dog Comedy), with 'original and intelligent material' (Funhouse Comedy), delivered with 'infectious charm' (Stage Fright Comedy).
