She may look demure but this English rose really packs a punch!

With many strings to her bow, having performed in improv theatres to big stage musicals, cabaret shows to street theatre, intimate comedy clubs to large scale festivals, Emma’s biggest skill is audience play and interaction, ensuring that no performance is ever the same.
The Noughtie Act
She may look demure, but this English rose really packs a punch with her husky vocals, honking accordion, and caustic wit. This show presents hilariously reworked covers of songs you’ll recognise from your acne-ridden teenage years (if, like me you were a teenager in the OOs that is!)

What a Wonderful World!
A unique volunteer-based act based on Louis Armstrong's What a Wonderful World. Packed full of charming and delightfully crafted props, hilariously directed and beautifully sung by the lady herself, you'll find yourself feeling like you're watching a cross between Blue Peter and Watch with Mother...seen through the eyes of a 35-year-old. After 10 pints, and maybe some hallucinogenics. See more here.
