You can be sure of one thing. Kathbum will include the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the truth. Well, sort of.
She said: “This show is pretty honest; I might take some liberties, but
comedians do the opposite from politicians. Politicians will tell little
truths that if you see them written down in a newspaper seem to be
true, but the bigger picture is an entire lie.
“Comedians will tell tiny lies while the big picture is hopefully more
truthful. I’ll change bits of stories and names so that a story about my
dad is actually about my uncle and a story about that boyfriend is
actually about this boyfriend.”
A huge hit at the 2015 Edinburgh Fringe, Kathbum is further
confirmation that London-based Canadian Ryan is on a scintillatingly
rich vein of form right now.
