Praise
“10 up-and-coming stand-ups to see at the Fringe” — The National Student, 2019
The sketchy, multi-media 2018 Edfringe show 20 Uses for Lovedoll, developed through the Soho Theatre SYC Edinburgh Lab, was described as a show “like no other” (Daily Info) and awarded ✭✭✭✭ by Funny Women, who called Maddie a “very inventive and dry writer”.
Fun Note: Her parents liked it. It was not a sex show, despite what many, many people assumed.
