The Pop Princess is Back
Get ready London, SuperGirly is back.
Hurtling her way back to the UK after a brief hiatus in her motherland, Australia, Lulu McClatchy explodes back onto the London stage as her outrageous alter-ego.
Strap yourselves in for an all-singing, all-glamour laugh-fest, that skewers the tabloid-shifting celebs and pop singers, right through their shallow hearts, to the tune of their own songs, delivered by an adorably insane character who secretly just wants to be one of them!
In the UK, SuperGirly has performed sold-out seasons in the West End and Edinburgh, she supported Sir Elton John on his Australian tour, brought the ‘invite-only‘ Montreal Just For Laughs concert to its knees, and starred in her own BBC sitcom.
Now, creator Lulu McClatchy has returned to the UK with her brand new show SuperGirly: Return of the Pop Princess.
It is an absolute dream to return to the UK, where I have so many fond memories, said McClatchy.
In 2002 McClatchy was personally requested to support Sir Elton John on the Australian leg of his World Tour with her hilarious character SuperGirly. She then went on to co-star in the Just for Laughs tour of Canada and the US in October/November alongside Harland Williams, Louis Ramey and Ron White and perform in the television Gala alongside Meagan Mullally. McClatchy then proceeded to write and perform three subsequent successful West End sell-out shows – SuperGirly, SuperGirly Live and Glitter Wonderland. She has performed on Children In Need, presented on BBC1’s Live And Kicking, and hosted ITV1’s Take The Mike. For BBC, McClatchy starred in her own sitcom, SuperGirly. Some of McClatchy’s celebrity fans include Madonna, Bob Geldof, Queen, Dolce & Gabanna and Bananarama to name a few, she has performed privately for each.
In an effortless flex of versatility, McClatchy is as comfortable performing for an intimate theatre of hundreds, to sold-out concerts of thousands, to live TV for millions.
As a comedic actress, McClatchy received rave reviews for her role as the politically incorrect Cassandra in the SBS series Bogan Pride, by Rebel Wilson. She has had co-starring roles in the feature films Aquamarine, Sunset Six, 6plots, Not Suitable for Children, Trench and The Comet Kids. She was nominated for best actress in the Maverick Movie Award in LA and also won one for best performance in a short film the lead role in Auditioning Fanny.
In 2015 McClatchy starred as Tania in the debut Australian production of Sexercise the Musical, and in 2016, joined the Australian cast of Avenue Q at Her Majesty’s Theatre Melbourne. A role that she would reprise on tour to Crown Theatre Perth, to rave reviews.
And Now. . .
SHE’S BACK. A self-confessed and self-crowned “Pop Princess”, SuperGirly puts herself on the elite A-list of celebrities. Now, she has left Australia, (or perhaps just escaped from an A-list celebrity with a disease) she feels like nothing, and no one can stand in her way on her rise to the top.
NOBODY IS SACRED. Not for the faint-hearted, SuperGirly ensures no star is safe from her killer vocals, outrageous lyrics, and razor-sharp wit. She takes on some of pop music’s biggest stars, with hysterical digs at the likes of Madonna, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Harry Styles, Adele, even the doe-eyed Lorde… and what she does to Taylor Swift, can only be described as pure justice.SuperGirly promises to take audiences on an all-singing, all-dancing ride of laughs and emotions, making them feel like they are getting an intimate look into her mad world, and, just when the audience feels safest, she likes to get amongst them, this is a place where anything can happen… and usually does.
Get ready for a hilarious poke at the business of ‘show’, there are plenty of laughs for all.
If you LIKE pop music, you will LOVE this show; if you HATE pop music, you will LOVE this show, so, if you can’t tell the difference between an All-Saint and a Spice Girl, you will be laughing so hard you won’t care.
SuperGirly: Return of the Pop Princess is a musical rollercoaster, an all-out assault on the world of pop, that will have you screaming, laughing, and wincing all at the same time. It will change the way you listen to pop music forever!
