Lauren Edwards: Brace Yourself

Part of Replay Festival

Wednesday 10 & Saturday 13 July, 8:15pm

THIS PERFORMANCE IS AT THEORY BAR SCREENING ROOM - Ground Floor 19-23 Meyers Pl, Melbourne VIC 3000

Comedian and self-proclaimed main character, Lauren Edwards, is throwing it back(brace)!

Directed by comedy icon, Claire Hooper, Brace Yourself hilariously chronicles Edwards' journey from plucky Brisbane back brace girl to Crazy Candle Lady and all the fleshy stuff in between.

In this new hour, Edwards dives deep into her personal archives of living with severe scoliosis and her titular back brace, all on the cusp of her 40th birthday.

From entering her orca era to reversing self-awareness, Brace Yourself is an ode to all the people-pleasing basic bitches who might have peaked in high school.

“Brace Yourself is what's been missing in Australian comedy...will make you cry laugh from start to finish.” ★★★★★ Lilitha Reviews  

“Lauren Edwards is a triple threat - vibrant, endearing and hilarious..” Weekend Notes
