A very dark stand-up comedy work-in-progress solo hour about being a tween survivor of 9/11 and other delightfully gruesome topics.
9/11 Birds and The Bees will be performed at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2025.
Come watch this solo comedy hour take shape as a work-in-progress before it takes the stage at the Fringe!
Description:
Where were you on 9/11? Sitting in school? Sitting on the toilet?
Sofia May, on the other hand, was running—for her life— from the dust cloud and debris as the World Trade Center toppled next to her school in downtown Manhattan, and now, as an adult, she's processed a lot of that trauma, continues to grieve, and is ready to get hilarious.
In this stand-up comedy solo hour, Sofia May takes the audience on a comedic journey of her experience as a tween survivor of 9/11. Through the grief and trauma is ever-shining exquisite irony.
And if 9/11 isn’t your favorite terrorist attack, don’t worry, Sofia will joke about plenty of other twisted topics with an air of childlike innocence that will satisfy all your naughtiest everyday needs.
