Rose Matafeo has kissed nearly 10 men in her life, AKA she's a total horndog. But what is horniness? Is it that intangible essence of excitement and opportunity? A fire that flickers in the beating heart of every human being? Or is it simply wanting to bone everyone, all the time? Join Rose for a brand-new hour of critically acclaimed stand-up, sketch and mid-20s angst. As seen on W1A and Have I Got News For You. 'Effervescently entertaining' **** (Guardian). 'One of the undoubted highlights of the Fringe' ***** (Telegraph). Best Show nominee, Melbourne Comedy Festival 2018.
