Luisa Omielan

"There needs to be more bloody-minded, recklessly ambitious stand-up like it."


There are many life lessons to be gained from the best pop music.

The Queen Bee certainly takes us there, although it’s misleading to think Luisa Omielan only takes advice from one diva. In a show peppered with badarse dancing and some serious singalongs, her energy, even at the end of a very long run, was infectious. The only sag was where the lyrics and their advice were less direct, but no question that Omielan’s going to be huge. There needs to be more bloody-minded, recklessly ambitious stand-up like it. Well done, lady.
