Frankie McNair Tours RELAX YOUR KNEES Around Australia and New Zealand.
McNair won “Best Newcomer” at the 2022 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
"Relax Your Knees" is a peek into the anxious brain of an aggressively optimistic dyslexic queer nightmare, who was raised by TV and is trying their best. No story, no thru-line (cowards), just Frankie McNair screaming her favourite jokes for 55 minutes and having too much fun in a grubby mix of stand-up, non sequitur sketch comedy and unbridled joy (*chef's kiss*).
Despite recently winning "Best Newcomer" at the 2022 Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the cult success of their alt-comedy festival hit, "Emma's Debutante" (an absurd comedy line up show created by Frankie McNair and Emma Holland), Frankie's mum still frequently asks if they need money. They do!
For the screen, Frankie co-starred in their IGTV series, "Couples in Iso", and co-starred in the upcoming web-series, "No-bodies Business", the horror-comedy short film HEN, and received Screen Australia funding to write their online series "SNACK" - a series about an anxious Banana who starts going to therapy. Concurrent to this tour, Frankie will also be debuting "An Intimate Evening with Tabatha Booth starring Frankie McNair" at the 2023 Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
