AM I MENTAL? Set for Highlander Bar
People judge each other every day, whether it's on the street, on TV, or on the internet, no one asks for it or wants it... until now. Comedian Daisy Berry is asking people to openly judge her and her mental health, live in person at her new show Am I Mental? Hear about her life, her family and how she met her dad for the first time when she was sixteen.
This is Daisy's debut solo show for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and she's written it to remove the stigma around mental health. We're all a little bit crazy and judgemental and Am I mental? embraces that. Why not get others to judge you and your history on your terms? In a brave and revealing fifty minutes of stand up, Berry will leave no section of her life untouched, unexplored or unjudged.
Daisy has performed to sell-out crowds at the Adelaide Fringe Festival and Feast Festival, the largest queer festival in Adelaide. Well known on the Melbourne stand up circuit for her honest material and self-deprecating wit, Daisy has also performed in successful joint shows at MICF (2013, 2015) and Midsumma (2016).
Am I Mental? opens on the 5th of April 2016 as part of the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and runs for two weeks.
