2010 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

Golden Gibbo nominee at this year's Melbourne International Comedy Festival Geraldine Quinn is back at the fringe with her smash hit show Shut Up and Sing.

What makes a hit pop song? Lady Gaga on crutches in a balsa wood frock? ABBA's cheerful date rate romp Waterloo? Lindsay Lohan shrieking in a bathtub? Beyonce spasaming in spandex? Rock dog ginga comedian Geraldine Quinn sets out to answer this question as she is determined to write a Sing Star calibre hit with the help of an unsuspecting audience. Cross Video Hits with Choose Your Own Adventure and help Quinny bust the charts apart.

Award winning comedian and singer songwriter Geraldine Quinn is back in Edinburgh after her sell out show last year Hex and the City. She has been seen at home on TV shows Spicks and Specks (ABC) and Stand Up Australia (The Comedy Channel) and has twice been a guest on ABC Radio's Comedy Hour. In 2007 Geraldine won Victoria's Green Room Award for Best Emerging Cabaret Artiste and in 2009 won the second annual Short and Sweet Cabaret competition in Melbourne. She has performed with renowned Australian artist Paul Kelly and was inducted into the Who's Who of Australian Women. Her first album Scream 'Jarvis Cocker' When You're Losing was released in February 2009.

Possessor of an astonishing voice, a wicked sense of humour and a keen intelligence, this queen of hardcore cabaret is a force to be reckoned with.
