About Sooz Kempner
Sooz Kempner: Imposter is a stand-up and storytelling show from Sooz Kempner, performed at Nic 2 (The Main Hall, Nicolson Square Venues) during Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Sooz has always felt like an imposter — except when it comes to singing. But when her voice suddenly stopped working as it always had before, she had to confront her imposter syndrome head-on. The show explores finding your voice, silencing trolls, and Princess Diana. It runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for those aged 12 and over.
Why see this show?
A stand-up show with a genuinely surprising emotional arc — Sooz Kempner turns a crisis of confidence into something funny and touching. The Princess Diana angle alone is worth the admission.
