Nona Mona Hot Spinster

Comedy
South Australia • World Premiere

Nona Mona’s parents didn’t come to this country so she could be a 36-year-old unmarried, childless comedian who prefers the company of cats & plants. Or did they?

Eating cereal for dinner, gossiping with your cat, & scrolling TikTok at midnight is all part of a healthy balanced lifestyle, right?

This 60-minute, one-woman comedy show smashes sketch comedy & clowning to highlight what life in your late thirties looks like when you reject social & cultural norms.

Following her Fringe Weekly Award winning, sold-out season of Hot Mess, Nona Mona returns with an all-new show. She’s done her fair share of hen’s parties, baby showers & first birthdays, now it’s time for this spinster to spread her… wings!
