Defence Mechanism by Hannah Platt
Named ‘voice of a generation’ (The Skinny) with ‘humour sharp enough to draw blood’ (The Guardian), Hannah Platt is ‘an undeniable rising star’ (Fest Mag) of the UK comedy scene.
In this award-nominated debut, Hannah unravels her frank and acerbic world view - and after a diagnosis of body dysmorphia, how the world looks back at her.
***** 'A remarkably assured and powerful debut' - DIVA Magazine
**** ‘A supremely accomplished example of how to reconstitute deep, personal trauma into punchy, effective stand up' -The Scotsman
