Press

Very engaging comedy.
The show is as sharp as it is tender…a show that’s worth holding on to.
The Guardian ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

Sharp observations…she keep the laughs coming.
She has a sting in her tale that makes her gossipy, garrulous hour of heartbreak into a satisfying whole that will surely linger in the memory.
The Times ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

Full of insight, life lessons and, most importantly, jokes…A beautifully calibrated touching, funny mix of anecdotes from the smutty to the smart.
Evening Standard ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

Her energy is cheery and charming.
Chortle ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

Bohart is such a positive presence, and lands the gags so well…The laugh count is high.
The Arts Desk ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

Rip-roaring stand-up.
Londonist ★★★★ (On Catherine Bohart: This Isn’t For You)

The sort of perfectly structured Edinburgh debut you always hope for and rarely get to see.
The Times ★★★★

Packed full of laughs… she’s destined for great things.
The Herald ★★★★

A star in the making.
The Skinny ★★★★

A winning mixture of self-deprecation and confidence. 
Beyond The Joke ★★★★

A supremely natural quality about her delivery. 
The List ★★★★

Pretty much the perfect comedy package.
