Rose Matafeo interview
This Thursday, rising star Rose Matafeo returns to Soho Theatre for the last three performances of her 2016 Fringe hit, Rose Matafeo Is Finally Dead. The show - a clever blend of stand-up and sketch-play - earned the endearing Aucklander rave reviews last year, which have reverberated around the comedy industry since.
What's On London, 14th June 2017With an appearance on Have I Got News for You, and a forthcoming Soho theatre run, 24-year-old Kiwi Rose Matafeo's star is in the ascendant. That won't surprise anyone who witnessed her Edinburgh fringe debut last summer: her show wasn't the finished article, but Matafeo's talent hit you like a force-10 gale. Excitable, chaotic and yet supremely in control; great voices, great jokes, both serious and silly; rocket-fuelled forward momentum - the woman has charisma to burn and we should see plenty more of her in 2017.
