Shirley Gnome is a self-styled musical comedian, performer, and storyteller from Vancouver, BC. Singing her own brand of titillating, crass, and absurd music, Shirley belts out original tunes about the embarrassing, profound, and hilarious adventures that happen when bodies collide. Her music, while smothered in explicit language and racy humor, is sung with the voice of "an angel dry humping a cloud." Sometimes tongue-in-cheek, othertimes insightful and honest, Shirley weaves a live show that has people in hysterics - often in spite of themselves.
She won over audiences all over Vancouver to become Patrick Maliha's The People Champ of Comedy Competition 2012 Grand Prize Winner, taking home $20,000. She continued this success with a critically acclaimed show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland, the world's largest arts celebration.
She recently received a standing ovation for her performance at the Vogue Theatre as part of the Vancouver International Burlesque Festival. She will be appearing at the Montreal Fringe Festival this year with her newest show, Shirley Gnome: She's Presenting.
