Main Character Energy
Bobby Harding and Temi Wilkey present
–About Main Character Energy
A beautiful and supremely talented Black actress is putting on an outrageously hilarious, autobiographical one-woman show to finally take up the space she’s been so routinely denied.
A high camp cocktail of comedy and cabaret, written and performed by Temi Wilkey.
After a critically acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2024 at Paines Plough’s Roundabout, and a sold-out run at Soho Theatre in Spring 2025, Temi Wilkey's cult phenomenon Main Character Energy is coming to take The Nest by storm!
The perfect send up of the one-woman show
