Hailed for her dynamic stand-up and admirable commitment to chiselling out high-quality humour from even the thorniest of subjects, Kiri Pritchard-McLean makes a welcome return to the circuit with Peacock, a show about her recent experience of becoming a foster parent.
“Lots of people don’t know how [fostering] works,” Kiri recently told Entssouthwales, “and I think demystifying things can often open doors. People have preconceptions about who and what it takes to be a foster carer. I think a stand-up comedian who’s about to do a 100-date tour blows a lot of those [preconceptions] out of the water!”
