After 15 years of writing politically charged anthems that rally the left and irritate the Daily Mail, Grace Petrie is doing something a bit different. In her brand-new show THIS IS NO TIME TO PANIC!, she’s fusing the two things she does best - impassioned folk music and razor-sharp stand-up comedy. Grace reckons there's no better time for a feel-good show! Depressed by fascism, misogyny and eco-destruction? Sounds like YOUR climate needs a change!
Following the huge success of her debut stand-up show Butch Ado About Nothing, which sold out venues across the UK and earned rave reviews, Grace returns with a fresh hour of original songs, storytelling, and subversive humour that takes aim at the state of… well, everything.
Long hailed as one of the UK’s most compelling songwriters, Grace has played to packed-out crowds from Glastonbury to Latitude Festival, earned chart success with her 2021 album Connectivity, and made regular appearances on BBC Radio 4’s The Now Show and hit podcast The Guilty Feminist. With this new hybrid show, she proves once again that you can be deeply political, disarmingly personal, and properly funny — all in the same set.
Folk songs won’t save the world. Neither will stand-up. But both at the same time? Read it and weep, Putin!
