Debut show from Chortle Best Newcomer 2014. Sofie has won all the awards, been on all the TV shows, got all the best press. Ten stars. 'Ice-cold heart of a killer ... hilarious' ***** (Skinny). As seen on Russell Howard's Stand-Up Central and BBC Two, and heard on BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 4. 'Destined to make a name for herself' (Chortle.co.uk). Named Time Out's One to Watch. Overall, a pretty cool dude.

The main comic inspiration is the risible notion that sanitary products are considered less essential, and therefore more taxable, than a range of daft things like cake decorations and exotic meats.

Alex Watson, WOW247, 14th August 2015A Londoner's guide to the Edinburgh Fringe
Heading out of London in search of culture may seem like a crazy idea for those who've never been to the Edinburgh Fringe. But this counter-cultural smackdown is not to be missed, even if it does mean heading "oop north 'cross t' border£" (yes, you will have to cross the M25). But newbies need not be intimidated; we went up recently and survived to tell the tale. So here are 10 things to remember to ensure your Fringe isn't too, um, hairy:

Alice Jones, The Independent, 11th June 2015More details
Introducing multi-award-winning Danish comedian Sofie Hagen who has already taken the UK by storm, delighting crowds with her unique observations and home truths, tackling taboo subjects with charm and sensibility, bullet-proof timing and an insatiably amiable personality.
What is it like to have a winner's mentality but not a winner's confidence? To be an insecure but arrogant teenager, living in a bubble and discovering that adults lie. In her debut hour, Bubblewrap, Sofie discusses mental health, body image, fighting the system, a shower cabinet, a psychiatric ward... and Westlife.
Revered in her home country, Sofie was chosen to perform at the prestigious 1700+ capacity Royal Opera House for the Danish Comedy Gala in 2012 as 'The New Hopes of Comedy'. Shortly thereafter she moved to London and the nominations and awards have since been flooding in. Having starred in various television and radio programmes in her native country of Denmark, in the UK she has appeared on BBC2's Alan Davies: Apres Ski, as well as guest slots on Lols Lounge (BBC Radio 1) and The Verb (BBC Radio 4). She has also performed internationally at festivals, from Altitude in Austria to the Geel Comedy Festival in the Netherlands.
Her podcast Comedians Telling Stuff is available now.
