"Nan, Me & Barbara Pravi"
In 2021, London performance artist and playwright, Hannah Maxwell moved back to the home counties to care for her recently bereaved grandmother. But this show isn’t about that. It’s about France’s Eurovision star Barbara Pravi, who’s just lovely.
In between cooking, cleaning and Countdown, Maxwell escapes into an intensifying fantasy of ballroom dances, heartfelt ballads, fluent French and definitely-not-creepy plots to engineer a meet-cute with a random foreign celebrity. It’s 'La La Land' meets 'Mission Impossible' meets Hannah’s nan.
Combining spoken-word, video and chanson francaise, "Nan, Me & Barbara Pravi" sits you down at the kitchen table to talk through grief and care, addiction and recovery, and hope and coping in unprecedented times.
Premiered to rave reviews as part of the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
