Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

Last week's Flatslam record is out now, complete with the chaotic musical crimes round. Robins' face moving from blind panic to "relax Clarkey, we've got this!" Parry's vocals as always a joy. I will miss Flatslam nights so much. youtube.com/shorts/SgvWo...

Planning a surprise birthday party for Mum & on the phone to Dad asking for names of old army mates. I've got whole lists of nicknames...none of which appear to be helpful in matching to real names or contact dets. This is going to be a fun exercise!

So that's Crunch & Crumble, RHLSTP and now Pappy's Flatshare Slamdown finishing. 2026 has been a shit year for comedy podcasts winding up. Hoping that this year's Festive Flatslam will end the series in chaotic glory!

It's a Sunday night so I thought I'd saunter down to the Comedy Store for some impro(v) fun. Parents and tech, scat-singing, opera, burlesque. Sorry - not burlesque, my mistake - that didn't happen and if it did we all collectively forgot... My go-to for getting the week off to a good start!

I've lived in this house 2 months now and still not met all my housemates. There was, however, a cat in the kitchen today, which was new. Still unclear whether it is one of the housemates. It stayed silent, turned and left the room so pretty much as welcoming as the others.

Saw the fantastic Sarah Keyworth's WIP gig at ABC Kennington tonight. For my money, one of the best MCs in the country and if tonight's anything to go by their next tour will be great too. Go see them wherever and whenever you can. #live #standup #london

A phenomenal orchestra backing a 146-strong female choir (one person for every one who died in the fire). Collections of short film and photographs of the time alongside sung-through quotations. A stunning and powerful way to deliver a history lesson.

Cat Mac @catherinemac.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

Standing O for the incredible performance of 'Fire In My Mouth'. Primarily telling the story of those who died in the tragic 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, but also delivering accounts of people's experiences around that time as immigrants to the US and fighting for working conditions.

You know and I know that I am far too old to still want to sit at the front of the DLR and imagine I am driving the train but we are where we are. (I should clarify there were no kids on the train and I only sat there for the final stop. I'm not a monster that would deny them that joy)

So Reform have launched an app that tracks small boats arriving in the UK in real time, and already their supporters are complaining that it's boring because there are hardly any boats. They are SO close to getting it.

I don't understand how there isn't a cap on the rate increase - the rule is market rate but one property company own the entire development in the area so essentially they set the market rate. I don't know what a sensible cap is - CPI maybe? I feel bad for those impacted by this. Not fair at all.

Me and my former flatmate (and very much still current friend) are still in our building whatsapp group. Last night the chat exploded with several people reporting being issued with S13 rent increases. People reporting £400-500 increases.

Went for a walk on Greenham Common yesterday and had a peek in the control tower. I'd only ever previously heard of it in relation to the Women's Peace Camp in the '80s but lots about its WW2 and Cold War roles. Came for the walk and history lesson, stayed to chat to the free-roaming cows!

So proud of our kid - delivered a speech to a group in the main hall of the House of Commons around the government failings in the EHRC and the impact it is having on people. Wish I could have been there to see them speak. Trans rights are human rights and trans lives matter. 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈 🖤💜🤍💛 🏳️‍⚧️ 🏳️‍🌈

Can't recommend Sunday nights at the Store enough. There is something so utterly joyous about communal laughter at live comedy nights, and this is one of my absolute favourites. This is a superb lineup. Go see!

Christina Aguilera was suggested as a rival character to be included in the Britney musical. We were then asked to suggest reasons why they might be rivals. Audience member: "Because the patriarchy likes to pit women against each other". Perfect answer - no notes.

Cat Mac @catherinemac.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Well - that was a lot of fun! Shamilton - the improvised musical. A different central character chosen by the audience each night. Britney Spears not my personal choice but a great show nonetheless. (Cast encouraged photos - I'm not being a dick. I did wait until the end anyway) #impro #London

Glad i got work done early and could come out to play - laughed so hard i couldn't breathe! The dance TED talk, florist cabaret, monopoly night & the M&B musical. I thought "not a mountain but a sand dune" was going to be the earworm but then Monopoly Night happened! Thanks @comedystoreplayers!
