The most fun you’ll ever have at a funeral
MYRA DUBOIS TO TAKE TO THE STAGE IN A NATIONAL TOUR ACROSS THE UK IN SEPTEMBER 2021
WITH: HER DEBUT WEST END SOLO PERFORMANCE AT THE GARRICK THEATRE
Myra is dead; long live Myra! Realising that she stands to miss out on the most attention she’ll ever receive, Myra DuBois brings forward her own funeral to make sure people get it right. After postponement for over a year due to the pesky pandemic, Myra DuBois, songbird of the North, is finally able to take her smash hit Edinburgh Festival show on the road.
Not that Myra let her skills go to waste in lockdown. Our charming chanteuse has gone from strength to strength, making it to the Semi Finals of Britain’s Got Talent 2020 and taking to the West End stage in Death Drop. Combine all this with her star turn in the upcoming movie version of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie and it’s clear to see that our Myra’s star is spectacularly on the rise.
The tour kicks off with six nights at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival from 9th – 15th August and then September will see the acid-tongued Myra present her irreverently sardonic side-eye at death, dying and the theatrics of grief to AdMyras all the way across the UK, including her debut West End solo performance at the Garrick on 6th September.
The show will be scored with songs by Richard Thomas (Jerry Springer The Opera), all wrapped up in Myra’s trademark acid-tongued wit — an evening packed with so many laughs, you’ll R.I.Pee yourself.
Myra will be supported by her Yorkshire’s #1 funnyman (according to his late mother), misogyny apologist, and inevitable sex symbol Frank Lavender. She’s not pleased about it, but that’s what you get when your creator has more than
one character.
Unpredictable, intelligent character comedy, the self-declared siren of South Yorkshire works the room, sparing no-one her sharp tongue, and yet somehow keeping everybody affectionately on-side.
