Award-winning British-Lebanese comedian Esther Manito (as seen on Live at the Apollo and Stand Up Sketch Show) sets out on her biggest UK tour to date, performing her brand new hilarious stand-up show Slagbomb at The Old Wollenn on 12th November.
Slagbomb takes a nosedive into the challenges and hilarities of the awkward sandwich years, inviting audiences to feel better about the madness in their own lives. Youthful freedom has given way to the reality of adult responsibilities and one finds oneself juggling everything while hosing faeces off the garden decking, clad in questionable footwear.
She’s tried elegance. She’s aimed for sophistication. But somehow, the chaos always wins. Because really—how do you keep your poise when you’re juggling kids, aging parents, and the crushing weight of unmet expectations? Following the success of her last show, Hell Hath No Fury, Esther is done pretending. Now, owning the label of ‘Angry woman’, she’s leaning in even further—into the mess, the mayhem, and the gloriously undignified truth of it all. From failed attempts at being sexy, sudden hearing loss, and awkward encounters with dodgy drug dealers, to the brutal realities of a waxing session gone sideways—nothing’s off limits. Because when there’s war in the world and family back in Lebanon, there are bigger things to worry about than being a ‘Slagbomb’
