Last year’s Foster’s
Edinburgh Comedy Award Newcomer winner Sofie Hagen hits the UK with her
first ever nationwide tour of her hotly anticipated second solo show, Shimmer Shatter.
Following the success of last year’s show, where
she enjoyed a total sell-out run and a plethora of the highest critical acclaim
before bagging the Newcomer award at the Fringe, Sofie has now proven herself
to be one of the strongest acts in the industry today. She began her Guilty Feminist Podcast earlier this
year with Deborah
Frances-White, which has since reached
over half a million downloads, and her four-week run of Bubblewrap went on to perform a sell-out run at London’s Soho
Theatre.
Although
her
assured, informed and deeply personal
comedy has made her a star on stage in the UK, she has began to branch
out to television and radio, writing and performing for Live From the BBC (BBC3), The One Show (BBC1), Russell
Howard’s Stand Up Central (Comedy Central), and The Now Show (Radio 4). In Denmark she was
chosen to perform at the prestigious 1700+ capacity Royal Opera House for
the Danish Comedy Gala in 2012 as ‘The New Hopes of Comedy’ and has
since performed internationally at festivals from Altitude in Austria
to the Melbourne
comedy festival.
