Sometimes it’s hard to be a Bunny.

After critically acclaimed runs at Camden Fringe, Thessaloniki Fringe and Smock Alley Dublin, Nora Kelly Lester’s Bunny Bunny makes its Skibbereen Arts Festival premiere this July.

Bunny is mad. She’s mad as hell and she’s not going to take it anymore…

…is she? 

On the edge of eviction, her love life in pieces and no money in her pockets, Bunny tries to rise again. An absurdist romantic nightmare comedy filled with empty piggy banks, landlords, ex-lovers, their new lovers, and a song about hotel soap, Bunny Bunny is a solo clown show created by Nora Kelly Lester, directed by Nessa Matthews, about trying to hold it all together while everything is falling apart.

One of the stand out performances of 2024."

“Masterful clowning shows us a woman struggling with life in a way that will be all too familiar to many: full of humour and pathos, as all clowns should be.”

“A rollicking comedy that never forgets its endearing heart.” 
★★★★
London Pub Theatres

“Bunny Bunny is a rare breed of seemingly improvised sketches, which in actuality, have been so finely tuned to seem as if Lester speaks off the cuff. Although each sketch we saw was different, they flowed into one cohesive story and it was incredibly relatable. I felt the writing, physical comedy, and ingenuity to be on par with Phoebe Waller- Bridge’s Fleabag.”
