Change of date !!
We managed not to
miss our flight this time
Karel Beer's Laughing Matters in Milano finally presents from Australia
2004 Time Out Comedy Award Winner
Julia Morris
on Via Broletto
finally on
tuesday 18 may 2004
we missed the flight out of Paris for the planned monday 10th may show
but managed to book tickets and fly in a week later to accomplish the mission.
The weather was magnificent.
Lady Julia Morris is “breathless, glamorous, camp, snobby, self deprecating, gossipy,
fast-paced, surprisingly barbed yet subtle with a stream of energy and a delivery so relentless
that you beg her to inhale, so rich with potential catchphrases you struggle to take them all in
It holds the audience, who can't afford to lose concentration for a split second
for fear of missing something great”.
Morris turned her back on a lucrative 10-year award winning comedy career in Australian television and headed for London in 2000.
Since that move she has supported Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, Mark Curry, Rich Hall, and appeared on over 37 UK television shows...
including Paul Whitehouse's sitcom Happiness, Stephen Fry's Q.I. and Liquid News.
What the papers say
“One long, blue,
naughty, unrelenting
paragraph, with
punchlines flipped
over the shoulder
with a lift of
a Jimmy Choo...
if you’ve even the smallest
funny bone
it will
spill you out into the night
with a stubborn grin.
I’m still laughing.”
The Scotsman
“Goes walkabout on her
gravity-defying heels,
the sheer momentum
of the star’s personality
makes the hour and a half
fly by far too fast.”
Evening Standard
“
A natural performer,
her Gatling gun delivery
spitting out universally
cracking lines with barely
a pause or a flat moment.”
The Fest
“Wonderful, hilarious
and unmissable
living proof that audacity
and irreverent effervescence
are life skills.”
The Scotsman
“The super-sexy diva
of comedy is deeply, fundamentally FUNNY.”
Metro
“She packs more material
into her show than should
be physically possible.”
The List
“When Julia is in full
verbal flow on a stage,
it’s as though Joan Rivers, Germaine Greer and
Betty Boop
are all living
inside the same body.
Phew, she’s a scorcher.”
The Herald
Missing the original flight worked out quite well for Julia and boyfriend
