Come start the festive countdown early as Myra DuBois presents We Wish You A Myra Christmas at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Join Myra for some festive Fringe cheer with off-season seasonal sing-a-longs, summertime yule-tide and anecdotes from her Christmases past in the UK’s festival city. Christmas day the DuBois way with family feuds, alcohol abuse and (of course) Jesus, delivered with her acerbic wit and razor like tongue sharper than the turkey carving knife. Fun for most of the family…
Mastering her craft in the burlesque bars and homosexual haunts of London (Soho’s Madame JoJos, Camden’s The Black Cap and the legendary Royal Vauxhall Tavern to name a few), Myra has since managed to gain national exposure for herself on ITV’s Fool Britannia with Dom Jolly, BBC1’s The John Bishop Show and most recently as a regular panellist on C5’s Celebrity Big Brother’s Bit on the Side.
Swapping her native South Yorkshire for the capital in 2008 for a life in the spotlight, Myra found herself becoming a New Act of the Year 2012 Finalist before winning a in 2013. After seeing Myra’s performance of his song ‘I Know Him So Well’, Sir Tim Rice contacted Myra personally, declaring her rendition of the hit ‘definitive’ (it’s on Twitter if you don’t believe us) and inviting her to perform the song at a private gala in Mayfair. Myra can also count John Bishop and Graham Norton as celebrity-fans, both taking to twitter to voice their endorsement after seeing her 2017 Edinburgh show DuBois Entendre.
Myra made her critically acclaimed solo Edinburgh debut with Self AdMyra in 2016 which then went on to tour the UK in 2017, generating AdMyras (Myra’s pet name for her fans) across the nation.
