Award winning comedian and writer Ania Magliano has added an extra London show to her tour with brand new show, ‘Peach Fuzz’. The news comes as Ania is currently starring in Saturday Night Live UK (Sky One and Peacock) as co-host of Weekend Update, a section of the show which has been highly praised by critics as “the real highlight… full of charm” (The Telegraph) and “a defining moment” (Metro). The addition of the extra show on Saturday 17th October now sees Ania do 3 nights at London’s Bloomsbury Theatre as well as 12 nights at Soho Theatre, Dean Street (Monday 22nd June – Saturday 4th July) to keep up with extraordinary demand from audiences.
‘Peach Fuzz’ will see Ania once again deliver a stellar hour of stand-up comedy with her signature laidback, story-telling style and relatable humour. Since her last tour, Ania has had another year’s worth of stories, confessions and gossip she wants to share with audiences. Armed with a microphone, Ania will explore everything and anything, sharing all of her hinged and unhinged inner thoughts – including musings on her own body’s idiosyncrasies, experience in a flotation tank, Sabrina Carpenter (everyone’s favourite pop girly) and the suffragettes (everyone’s favourite girl group).
