Comedian Sofie Hagen has announced a new stand-up tour.
The Danish-born UK-based comedian, who won Edinburgh Comedy Award's Best Newcomer title in 2015, has called her new show Dead Baby Frog. Following a run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this August, she will be embarking on a 30 plus date tour between October 2017 and February 2018.
The tour organisers explain: "Sofie's back and this time she's angry. Or rather, she's talking about anger since she has been left incapable of feeling, well, most things, thanks to her psychopathic grandfather. It's time to talk about his funeral, even though he's not dead yet... Is that right? Sofie turns to the parable of boiling frog for answers."
Hagen is promoting the tour today (Tuesday 25th April) with a marathon Facebook Live chat with her comedy hero, Mark Watson. The duo will be talking "until they drop". Watch live on Facebook
Dead Baby Frog will be Sofie Hagen's third full length show. She recently released her second show, Shimmer Shatter, as a download. Buy
