SMILE
What do Sexy KFC, and your homophobic Aunt Sharon have in common? Tammy Woodburn — an up-and-coming musical comedienne — is determined to find out. When her potential new manager challenges her to be more honest on stage, Tammy uses original songs, stand-up, and painfully awkward family conversations (hello Aunt Sharon) to find the line between truth and a punchline. Blending biting humour, original music, and impressive instrumentalism, SMILE is a sharp one-woman musical comedy about burnout, identity, and the pressure to always keep everyone smiling.
SMILE sold out its preview at Green Note, an award-winning Camden venue recognised by Time Out.
Tammy Woodburn just wants to make you smile - why don’t you let her try?
