You’ve heard this woman in a café, complaining her extra-hot-skinny latté isn’t hot enough. You’ve seen her in a restaurant, demanding dishes that aren’t on the menu. You’ve met her in the ALDI car park, where her SUV takes up multiple spaces: the dreaded Karen.
But could you – down-to-earth, humble, people-pleasing – become her? Holly did. And she’s ready to speak her truth.
This debut one-woman-show from internationally-acclaimed slam poet and accidental keyboard warrior Holly Hughes is a bold, hilarious and brutally honest interrogation of who gets to be angry in today’s society. After all, what is so wrong with holding people accountable? When broligarch losers are destroying the world, is being a Karen REALLY that bad?
Join the most hated woman on Google reviews to celebrate society's unsung heroes (serial complainers).
After a sell-out run at Dublin Fringe Festival, Karen is ready for world domination. This is more than comedy. This is a movement. One complaint at a time.
