Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh
A properly fresh take on quarter-century living, Magliano’s is a charismatic debut moving through divorce, sexuality and cat-buying with ease
Absolutely No Worries If Not is Ania Magliano’s coming-out show. After an imagined heroic bisexuality reveal to her parents didn’t quite go to plan, she has a second chance to unveil her true self to the assembled audience.
Magliano takes us on her journey of self-discovery via engaging stories about her Polish mum’s take on British idioms, bisexuality, personality quizzes, the sinister intensity of Lush stores, all-girl schools, a sex party that goes awry, panic attacks, and buying a cat off Gumtree because she was “terrified of being alone”.
At Pleasance Courtyard, Edinburgh, until 28 August.
