Yes, I’m doing it again – and this time at a regular venue. As in not somewhere crammed with friends and family. But with real punters. People who don’t know me. Eek!
I saw the video of my debut performance yesterday for the first time (care of the lovely Daniela Saioni) and was surprised at how un-excrutiating I found it. I actually enjoyed it. It wasn’t toe-curlingly bad. So I’m doing it again.
I showed the DVD to my agent, Fran Messinger, who loved it. She made some suggestions and I’m going to edit it and put it on a new stand-up page on this website.
So next Tuesday is the day. The Comedy Hole is the place. At 8pm the main acts come on (including Daniela, who is well-worth seeing in her own right – she rocks) and then at 10pm it’s the newbies at the open mike. If you fancy coming to see my re-worked material, then be at the Hole in the Wall pub at the corner of Dundas and Keele (just west of the intersection on the south side of Dundas). And laugh. Loudly. Drink beer beforehand if that will help and say hello to the lovely Tiffany who runs the bar.

Marilla who?
I am a British-born actress and stand-up comic who does lots of voice work (for commercials, cartoons and corporate clients) and sometimes, when I'm very lucky, tv and film. When I was in England I did mostly theatre. Now I'm in Canada I spend the majority of the time writing and performing stand-up. When I'm not making episodes of Talking Bollocks, that is. And that's me for you.
