Previous Praise for Taylah:

★★★★
‘Packed with memorable material’ - Hugging Comedians

‘Great comedic timing and witty one liners’ -R L Smith

It’s Taylah Whelan’s birthday and she is alone in her bedroom. Jealous?

You've had your outfit planned for weeks, the lounge room is set up and your crush is invited. Then, your period strikes, no one turns up and you're actually gay. Enter our hero Taylah Whelan. She doesn't know this story, she’s just lived it.

‘Happy Birthday Taylah Whelan’ traverses milestone birthdays, trying to get out of your hometown and missing your mum even when she’s right there.

This isn't a show where a woman in her mid twenties does a child voice. It’s worse.
