Jessie and Other Stories
Mary Glaisyer (Whakatū Nelson)
“sharp witted and hilarious” – Nelson magazine
“Mary grabbed our audience by the heart and carried us all through beautifully woven stories. An absolute breath of fresh air we look forward to having her back soon.” – Lyric Theatre, Granity
Mary Glaisyer is an absolute Fringe favourite with her dry wit, gentle humour and thought-provoking stories. This time she’s joined by the musical artistry of violinist Juliet Ayre, and together they’ll serve up a delicious cocktail of words and music.
Mary will shine a humorous lens on her life. She has always loved to entertain but it was only at the age of 74 that she stepped onto the comedy stage.
Mary says that she was nervous about asking Juliet to perform in this show. “It was like asking Michelangelo to paint my kitchen green, but I know that Juliet’s violin interludes will entrance the audience.”
