EDINBURGH 2017: BWW Q&A- Eleanor Conway
About Eleanor Conway's Walk of Shame
Eleanor Conway has always been a woman of extremes: she partied around the world as a music journalist, ran off to Asia to work for the triads, made hardcore porn and Tinder'd her way through most of London... Now sober from alcohol and substances, she's failing to find moderation and meaning.
Why bring it back to Edinburgh?
The show, was a hit on the free fringe last year and I've been on a sell out national tour ever since... Which I've now extended into the Autumn and beyond, when The Stand asked me back to the Fringe, I couldn't say no really could to the home of Kitson and Christie... Two of my favourite comics.
It's going to be an absolute joy to come and bring the show back after touring it all year...
What sets it apart from other shows at the Fringe?
I don't think anyone has my story, the show is raw, honest, unique, dark in places and funny. It touches on addiction not only substance based but the addict in all of us in 2017.
Who would you recommend comes to see you?
Single men. I don't drink or meet randoms in smoking areas at 4am in the morning anymore, and I can't trust my obsessed head to act like a normal person on Tinder so I've banned myself. So single, solvent, tall men that like gregarious, charismatic women with a touch of vulnerability.
..and who would you recommend maybe doesn't?
