CLEMENTINE II to Return to Edinburgh Fringe with Shedinburgh Date

After a run of sell-out shows and critical acclaim across two festival runs, four Soho Theatre residencies and two UK tours, Rosalie Minnitt’s character Clementine will return to the Edinburgh Fringe in a brand new 2.0 show! Performances will run 5-30 August.

Following an epic quest to find her true love (spoiler: it was her all along), Lady Clementine is back by overwhelming demand (hers).

She’s escaping her small town and heading off to The Big City for the season. But with neither sense nor sensibility, will history’s most helpless heroine make her mark and take the world by storm? And will her undiscovered genius finally be realised? She’s been thinking about having her first thought, after all.

In this eagerly anticipated return, Rosalie Minnitt (BBC One’s How Are You? It's Alan (Partridge); Radio 4’s Lady Clementine Is Looking For Love; Funny Women Awards winner 2025) will unleash Miss Clementine onto the world once more. Think Gen Z Jane Austen on Adderall.

In this second chapter, we follow Lady Clem - at a safe distance - as she takes on high society, scandal and, most terrifying of all, self-awareness.  But, as revolution (general) rages on around her, will she keep her cool or lose her head entirely? Beneath Clem’s chaos is a story about legacy, rivalry and not being quite where you want to be in life.

Summing up the allure of this anti-hero, creator and performer Rosalie Minnitt says: “Clementine celebrates the complicated parts of being a woman in the 2020s. I’ve had hundreds of DMs + messages + emails telling me about how Clementine made them feel. Women saw this show multiple times. Then they brought their friends and sisters and mums and aunts. One girl came four times and she wrote to me: ‘if someone asked me why I love women and love being a woman, I’d show them this show’.”

Rosalie Minnitt is an award-winning comedy writer/performer. She is an alumnus of the Soho Theatre Labs and The Free Association and has written for BBC Radio 4, BBC Bitesize, CBBC, and her work won an RTS North Award in 2023. She’s been featured in The Telegraph, The Times, Stylist and the Guardian and is a regular on the London comedy circuit. Clementine was Rosalie's debut character comedy show at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe - both as a writer and performer - and was officially marked by British Comedy Guide as one of the Top-Reviewed Shows of the Fringe that year. The Telegraph also called it one of the funniest shows of the festival and it was described as 'delirious, demented stuff' by Chortle. After a sold-out run including two extensions at Soho Theatre, The Guardian named Clementine as one of the Top 10 Comedy Shows of 2023, calling it 'one of the freshest and funniest shows of the year, a frenetic, neurotic and time-bending character comedy.' The Guardian also picked out Clementine as one of their cultural picks of 2025 and profiled Rosalie in a major G2 piece (here), and the show was featured on Sky News (watch here).

Earlier this year, as well as the first leg of her UK tour, Rosalie appeared in Edinburgh Comedy Award winner Jordan Brookes’ run of his acclaimed show Fontanelle at Soho Theatre and, on screen. More recently, in September, Rosalie was the winner of Funny Women Comedy Shorts Award and, in October, appeared in the spoof Alan Partridge documentary, Alan Partridge: How Are You? Rosalie appeared on Loose Ends in January, alongside Nigel Havers, Mike Wozniak, Dan Gillespie Sells and Stealing Sheep.
