Party: SOFIE HAGEN LOVES WESTLIFE

Party: SOFIE HAGEN LOVES WESTLIFE

I grew up with Westlife, I spent most of my teenage years, the most essential years of my life, as a Westlife-fan. It was my main identity and I would spend hours learning trivia about the band members. I was thirteen years old and I put lots and lots of stuff on the internet about my fandom. Now I’m older and I am a professional stand-up comedian based in London. The Westlife stuff is still there and I have no way of getting it off the itnernet. My name is being googled daily by people I have never met. So I have written a show about it. And I am taking it to Sligo. It is a show about being a fan, it is a tribute to Westlife, it is about growing up, about being a teenager. Sofie Hagen

Sofie Hagen will also support Abandoman Friday 10th

Sofie Hagen took the UK by storm in just a few months, racking up Time Out One to Watch, and Chortle Best Newcomer 2014 awards, as well as an appearance on Alan Davies’s Apres Ski on BBC2, and guest slots on Radio 1 and Radio 4. With the Laughing Horse New Act of the Year 2013 already under firmly her belt, she’s definitely “destined for great things”
