...a Four Star play, some Four Star comedy sketches,
a Four Star stand-up show and a Top Ten bestselling book...

SHORT, SHARP. SHOCKING
The most outspoken female stand-up in Britain,
and the most ribald and refreshing comedy talent
to have risen from the slums of Glasgow since Billy Connolly.

Daily Telegraph , 10th August 2006

"JANEY GODLEY'S BLOG - LIVE!"
in the Belly Laugh of
THE SMIRNOFF UNDERBELLY
- Venue 61
until 27th August 2006

8.10pm (1 hour)

"As challenging and honest as ever." (The List FOUR STARS) "Fascinating tales... raw, near-the-knuckle... compelling... They will have you transfixed" (Chortle FOUR STARS) "An enjoyable success" (one4review.com FOUR STARS) "Spectacularly revealing and honest" (Mackenzie Crook) True tales and breathtaking personal honesty from "Scotland's funniest woman... there is nothing Godley is afraid to say" (The Scotsman). "Free-flowing chat based on the incident-crammed internet blog about her life (including an uproariously entertaining anecdote about kissing George Clooney at this year's Bafta awards)" (Daily Telegraph) Part highlights from two years of fast/ furious blogging, part live diary of Janey's dramatic offline life, but also an admission of the real reason Janey started to talk to strangers. From the Owlman of Glasgow and the MI5 man in London to beating up a cerebral palsy pervert in New Zealand and trying to prevent mass-murder by a US soldier inside Abu Ghraib Prison, Iraq, while getting naked. It's all true... Tremendous. PLUS what happened to Janey today at the Fringe. Every show is different. "Expect stories so preposterous they cannot possibly be true, except with Godley they are" (London Evening Standard) "Enlivened by Godley’s fiery spark" (Metro) "Brilliantly funny" (Guardian) "Outrageously candid" (Sun) "Hilarious... Outrageous... SEE IT!" (Daily Mirror)

JANEY GODLEY & ASHLEY STORRIE'S "SQUARE STREET"
in the Delhi Belly of
THE SMIRNOFF UNDERBELLY
- Venue 61
until 27th August 2006

6.30pm (1 hour)

"Inevitably comparable to 'Little Britain', SQUARE STREET is far funnier."(Three Weeks FOUR STARS) "A biting, bare-faced assault on the Fringe - the sine qua non of political incorrectness" (The Scotsman). "Bawdily eccentric low-life character skits" (Daily Telegraph) "Downright offensive" (Chortle). "Possibly the most outrageous mother and daughter act ever." (Glasgow Evening Times) At 13, Ashley Storrie was the Fringe's youngest comic. ("Barbed with cynicism beyond her years" - Sunday Telegraph) Now she returns aged 20 with her acclaimed stand-up-playwright-actress-bestselling-author mum Janey Godley ("The funniest mum on earth" - New Zealand Herald). No comedy double act you have ever seen before can prepare you for the shock of Janey Godley & Ashley Storrie in... SQUARE STREET - politically, religiously, morally and fiercely offensive.
