Sounds Queer to Me

Sounds Queer to Me

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2026

A hybrid between stand-up comedy and musical theatre, this one-woman show tells the true and tragic tale of Ivy’s love life, from age 20 to 24. The story is told through a series of absurd anecdotes and sapphic songs, and it covers her experiences with Covid Lockdown dating, unrequited crushes, secret flings and ill-fated “friendships”. Ivy also employs the use of handheld signs throughout the show to highlight the recurring themes and encourage audience participation. Filled with dramatic irony, humorous coincidence and poignant introspection, this show is an amusing, quirky and heartfelt journey of self-discovery.
