Julie Jay
Award-winning Irish comedian, Julie Jay has announced her brand new live show, ‘Oops This Is Toxic’ which will visit venues across Ireland including The Glens Centre, Manorhamilton on Saturday, March 5.
‘Oops This Is Toxic’ is a nostalgia-fest for anyone who has ever dropped to that ‘Hit Me Baby’ beat, for anyone who came of age against the backdrop of nineties/noughties misogyny, for anyone who has wanted to be defined by their moments of joy rather than their moments of pain.
As a fellow early eighties Sagittarius, comedian Julie Jay’s life has had a lot of parallels with Britney Spears: Britney was a member of the Mickey Mouse Club, Julie was a member of the Poetry Club; Britney can sing like an angel, Julie was the only hearing child in her class of 30 who didn’t make the Confirmation Choir!
Speaking on the tour announcement Julie said “I’m very excited to hit the road with my new show and to finally get back on stage with a live audience, a very welcome change from the Zoom and TikTok screen, it’s been a long time coming!”
A dark-comedy examination of 90s/00s misogyny which celebrates not just Britney, but everyone who survived an era wherein Timberlakes flew high while Janet Jacksons got grounded.
The show has been described as “hilarious” by the Irish Examiner.
Tickets are available to purchase now from www.juliejaycomedy.com or from The Glens Centre.
