Maren May reads between no lines

Do you ever find yourself leaving a social situation feeling like you missed a brief everyone else got? Do you lie awake at night remembering that odd thing you said five years ago at your best mate's birthday party? Are you ever lost in your own head trying to find the right words to say, after the wrong ones already came out of your mouth?

This show is for you.

Following last year's debut show 'Maren May is German', exploring her European heritage, Maren dives into her inability to read between the lines and the many social situations where she definitely didn't quite get it right.

DISCLAIMER: Giggles likely. Advice highly unlikely. 

★★★★ "A crack up... even in her more serious stories, there is a delightful slice of silliness."  Fringefeed, 2024

Directed by Claire Hooper

Presented by: Maren May

Maren has performed stand-up in English and German; much prefers the English gigs and is a regular in the Australian stand-up scene.
As an emerging artist, she performed in two seasons of the 'Breast of the Fest' (2022 & 2023) before diving into her first solo hour of comedy in 2024 with her debut show 'Maren May is German'.
She currently also hosts the comedy podcast ‘Maren has a crush on...’, interviewing fellow comedians about their crushes.
