Animal? Gabrielle MacPherson's Work In Progress takes you though her preparations for life: a hammer and Vaseline, fighting ostriches, and farting through keyholes. Always preparing for the worst, just hoping not to get murdered. MacPherson's new show is all about surviving monsters whilst being an absolute animal. 'Her "sod the lot of you" attitude is definitely a winner' (Steve Bennett, Chortle.co.uk). 'Delightfully deadpan, skilfully surreal and very bloody funny!' (Maisie Adam). Funny Women’s One To Watch 2025, Best In Class Comedian 2025, and Leicester Square New Comedian 2024 finalist.
