Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery - Baroness by Late Bloomers
Location: Central Stories Museum & Art Gallery
Region: Alexandra
Dates: Fri, 6 September 2024 @ 7.30pm
What would you do if you became the richest woman in the world overnight?
Multi-award winning comedian Marea Colombo tells the tale of Angela Burdett-Coutts, the greatest Baroness you’ve never heard of.
In a unique take on stand-up comedy, Baroness will be a chaotic and critical analysis of the state of the world. Because you know what they say – mo’ money, mo’ problems.
Baroness marks Colombo’s third solo piece and is produced under Late Bloomers. Late Bloomers is an Otepoi-based theatre company founded by local creatives Marea Colombo and Bronwyn Wallace. The pair focus on creating original works that tell stories in innovative ways.
Baroness, true to form, is incredibly funny” – Theatreview
“Comfortably the strongest performance I personally saw at the Fringe, Colombo oozes the confidence of a stage veteran whilst also seeming humble and potentially even unaware of just how good the show she has created is.” – Theatre Travels
“I never find myself going more than a couple of minutes without laughing.” – Art Murmurs
“Colombo’s commanding presence and fluency with words as herself, Marea, is instantly engaging, and the territory she traverses is very relatable.” – John Smythe
