The New York Times has described her as the funniest comedienne ever, and after her guest appearance on the TV series 30 Rock she was nominated for an Emmy for her gender-bending imitation of the North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il. She has won a myriad of prizes and been nominated for the Grammy Awards and also received the American Comedy Award for Best Female Comedian. It goes without saying that this ‘Frisco born and bred comedian is the real deal.
HBQT protagonist Margaret Cho is Stockholm-bound in December, where she will perform her new show Psycho at Södra Teatern. A show about madness, and her rage about what’s going on in the world right now – everything from police brutality to racism and what she sees as increasing amount of violence towards women.
Margaret Cho’s humour can be best explained as a colourful spectrum, and her shows have a record of leaving piles of positive reviews, so be prepared to be gob-smacked by her visit.
