Molly Naylor performing ‘Stop Trying to be Fantastic’

About this event

One day, a magpie comes into a little girl’s house by mistake. It decides it likes her. She spends the next twenty-five years trying to get away from it.

Stop Trying to be Fantastic is a story about suffering, adventure, saviour-complex, acceptance, and a magpie who refuses to quit.

From award-winning writer/performer Molly Naylor (Whenever I Get Blown Up I Think Of You, Sky One’s After Hours) comes this lyrical and funny spoken word show that explores what we owe to each other and what we owe to ourselves.

It’s an anti-self-help show… that might actually help.

‘Brave, funny, tough and beautiful writing ‘ – the Guardian

Produced in association with INN CROWD. Co-commissioned by Norwich Arts Centre.

Runtime: 60 minutes

14+ (some swearing/adult content)

Started in 2016 INN CROWD is a unique arts project, devised by partners Applause Rural Touring, Creative Arts East and National Centre for Writing with support from Pub is the Hub.

From 2016-19 Inn Crowd supported rural pubs throughout the South East and East of England to host exciting and inspiring spoken word, poetry and storytelling performances in their pubs, reaching and engaging with a wide range of audiences.
