Tamara & Celine take a Wild Show to Edinburgh Fringe!

Hi! We're Celine Kuklowsky and Tamara Appleton, two queer comedians from North America that are taking an exciting show to Edinburgh Fringe Festival (August 2025) and we need your help to get there!!

Comedy Party is an almost entirely improvised hour-long show that brings hope, connection and a sense of community in dark times. Every show is different and uses the audience to create a unique experience every time. There will be games! There will be inappropriate questions! There will be party props and goddamn it there will be laughter!

Show description:

Put your party hats on because YOU'RE INVITED to the ultimate end of the world party. Two queer North American comedians search for hope, meaning and connection in an hour long comedy show. Come watch as they combine their completely different comedy stylings for an absolutely chaotic experience: a comedy variety show that includes standup, improv and audience participation. Spend your last hour on earth with two gays. You won’t want to miss it!

Two sold out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and a UK tour (The Stand) with American comedy collective Laughing Stock. "A favorite among comedy enthusiasts and critics alike, Celine always surprises her audiences, keeps them rapt and on the edge of their seats, and riotously laughing." - Nicholas Ducassi, Los Angeles Times Instagram.com/celinekuk

Directed by: Jess Coppen-Gardner actor/director who graduated from The Institute of the Arts Barcelona in Musical Theatre. She is the Book writer and Co-Writer of the show "What’s Wrong With Me?

Your donation will help us buy posters and flyers to advertise the show, as well as a hell of a lot of fringe costs that are necessary to put up a show in Edinburgh (getting registered online, adverts in booklets, as well as things like props, tech and housing). Above all, you will help us build this show into the hit we know it will be. We have ambitious plans for this show, including touring it across Europe and the US and we know Fringe is the first step in building into the big messy beautiful chaotic show we know it is and that audiences will love!
