Bliss Comedy presents:
Cross Examination (A Work in Progress)
Share:
TweetFor most of her life, Mary Cross was the star witness in the case of “How to Fit In.”
Northern. Gay. Church-going. Straight-A student. Party girl. Barrister. Comedian. Mum.
Each role performed flawlessly. Each one slightly rehearsed.
But somewhere between the courtroom and the comedy stage, Mary discovered something unexpected: her true voice
In Cross Examination, Mary uses her legal training to interrogate the evidence of her own life.
When did the double life begin?
How many versions of yourself can you become before you forget which one is actually you?
And what happens when you finally stop performing as the person you think everyone wants and start being yourself?
Blending painfully funny stories, 90s anthems and fearless self-reflection, Mary charts her journey from outsider child to high-achieving professional to stand-up comedian where, most unexpectedly, she found the most authentic version of herself.
Uplifting, nostalgic and gloriously unfiltered, Cross Examination is for anyone who has ever edited themselves to fit in and is finally ready to live out loud.
Court is in session and YOU get to give the verdict
This debut performance will be followed by a 90's school disco so you can be your loudest self on the dance floor.

Honestly this was a fantastic night of fun, frivolity, filth but sadly no fornication. The acts were fantastic, for some it was only their 3-4th time doing standup but they did an amazing job. Hats off to them all as performing in such an intimate venue (a crowd of 40), standing literally 2ft from your audience is probably more nerve wracking than performing to hi Fred’s with a bright light shining in your face. The acts were courageous, funny, diverse and happy to wear their heart on their sleeve. Audience participation is a must to 1) enjoy the gig & 2) give the acts the recognition they deserve m. Well done to all involved & I can’t wait to come to the next 1. PS you could definitely up your prices as 3hrs of top notch comedy was definitely worth more than £8. I donated another tenner as it was easily worth the money. Keep up the good work guys. You were AWESOME 🙌
