Edinburgh Fringe
Dee Allum: Deadname
![Recommended by Comedy.co.uk](https://cdn.comedy.co.uk/images/graphics/fringe/recommended.png)
Dee Allum's softly-spoken delivery belies a wit that's as bright as her eyes. This debut hour on transitioning to womanhood is packed with jokes and an absolute joy to watch.
She's here! She's queer! Her parents are sort-of used to it! Fresh, exciting and overall just happy to be here, Dee is the greatest transgender comedian her small village has ever produced. This debut stand-up show is about reconciling with the past, coming out and going through two puberties (frankly, two too many). As seen on the BBC New Comedy Awards Final and Comedy Central Live. 'Delightfully funny... thoroughly engaging' (Chortle.co.uk). 'You could well be furious about not getting a ticket to one of their sold-out shows very soon' (Guardian).
