US comedian Caitlin Cook returns to the UK with her critically acclaimed musical comedy show ‘The Writing On The Stall’. The show will open at Brighton’s Komedia for two shows on 31st May & 1st June before a run at London’s Soho Theatre from 4th – 7th June.  She has previously sold out several Off-Broadway runs, national tours, and last years Edinburgh Fringe and subsequent London shows.

‘The Writing on the Stall’, Caitlin’s hit bathroom graffiti musical is literally set in a public bathroom. Watch Cook transform toilet-scrawled graffiti into the lyrics of original songs that takes the audience on a journey through these irreverent, poignant, and often obscene messages.  Be warned the show might include: slingshotted underwear, milk pistols, and a cowboy dick (complete, with spurs!)

"After building bits and pieces of this show for years at past fringes and in front of UK audiences, it was so incredibly rewarding to return to a sold out run at the Edinburgh Fringe and seven sold out shows in London this summer—shows full of audiences singing along and lining up to talk to me for hours afterwards. I can’t wait to bring it back to the prestigious Soho Theatre and do a larger UK tour."  CAITLIN COOK  

Caitlin Cook is a LA-born, NYC-based, Oxford-educated, hyphen-addicted comedian, musician, writer, director, and producer. The Writing on the Stall was a New York Times Critic’s Pick and its accompanying studio album has hit over 50M streams across all platforms. She has two other successful musical comedy albums: Zinger-Songwriter, which she recorded at 12 different venues whilst on tour across the US and UK, and Betty Pitch, which she recorded after writing 250 songs a day.

A fierce champion of mixed media and genre-bending works of art, Cook has carved out a space for herself smack-dab in the centre of the Venn diagram between comedy, music, and theatre. Aside from her work as a performer, she served as a creative consultant for Sean Patton’s Number One on Peacock, as the producer for Gabe Mollica’s hit show Solo that was featured on This American Life, and as the director of A.J. Holmes’ critically-acclaimed Yeah, But Not Right Now. She is also one-half of the musical comedy duo 2/3rds of a Threesome.
