Tara Flynn: Press Reviews
"Deserves to be a far bigger star than she already is..."
One4Review ****
"...jarringly surreal and inventively silly. It’s the Boosh-like oddity that clinches it."
Andrew Collins
"Delightful set of musical comedy…wonderfully twisted…had her audience in stitches...well worth seeing"
ThreeWeeks
"Well written and funny… very entertaining"
Australian Comedy Review
"Reminds me of NYC Antifolker Phoebe Kreutz - both play ‘funny songs’ but through the sub-text and performance style reveal a vulnerability and open-approach to life that elevates their work and makes what they do as valid as so-called ‘regular songs’. Smart, funny and a real treat!"
Lach
"...refreshingly testosterone-free comedy zone that still has balls..."
The Stage
"You could listen to the lovely Ms Flynn all night"
Chortle
"Impossible to dislike"

2012 – All the Single Ladies and radio stuff.
January 2nd, 2012Hello again.
Sorry the blogging’s fallen by the wayside a bit. Things have been manic, what with moving back to Ireland, work, and all that. Thanks to everyone who bought the album, read the blogs and came to the shows in 2011. It’d have been rubbish without you.
Just as I land in the old sod, of course, by sod’s law, I’m off again. I’m doing a new play called All the Single Ladies. It’s by Abigail Burdess and it’s very funny – a 3-hander starring Leslie Ash, Brooke Kinsella and me. We’re touring the UK til April 20th and if you’re nearby, you can catch us at one of the dates/ places listed here. It’d be lovely to see you. (I think.)
If you’re reading this in January, I have a piece on resolutions in Irish Tatler. You could read that, if you miss me.
Meanwhile, two interesting bits of radio are knocking about. The first is an RTE pilot of What’s The Story – a new topical panel show which we’d love to develop and do more of. The second is me being an odd creature in Matt Berry’s brilliant new radio sitcom I, Regress for BBC Radio 4. (Click on the titles for more details.) Very proud to be involved in both so I hope you like ‘em!
If you don’t hear from me for a bit, I’ll either be on the road or learning lines or both. But I hope to see you along the way.
Love your work.
Tara
November – December 2011
November 1st, 2011Hello.
Just a quick update really. How are you, by the way? You’re looking well.
Today, I started writing the new songs that have been fermenting in the notebook long enough. It’s time to make them into full-on alcoholic beverages with great, foamy heads. (I’m guessing fermented things foam – I’m not great on that end of things.)
A few gigs for you to look out for while the brewing process continues:
