4.5 Stars from ArtsHub!
“With a funny nod to the original show, American Whore Story shows this consummate professional move at a cracking pace, with a laugh a minute. She’s full of chutzpah and sassy American confidence, drawing the audience in with her considerable charm and side-splitting sense of humour, which evokes the wisecracks of Mae West, the over-the-top delivery of Phyllis Diller and the hilarious physical comedy of Lucille Ball (whom she impersonates later in the show). …Her writing is sharply self-aware and self-deprecating, at the same time as being refreshingly honest with her revelations about her love life and biting ambition. …She brazenly goes where others fear to tread. …This one-woman show is brilliantly written and performed by a consummate professional. It is a treat to witness her deliver such an assured performance. The small audience who attended on the day ArtsHub attended were on their feet clapping and cheering at the end. American Whore Story is a great example of everything we love about Fringe. It’s a showcase of brilliant storytelling, outstanding performance and a peek into the life of a very kooky lady.”
4 Stars from Starburst Magazine:
“This is a show that pulls no punches. Naomi wears her heart on her sleeve, and she celebrates the good with the bad. We learn that she hasn’t had the easiest love life nor the easiest career, but every moment of the journey feels like it’s been lived with courage and passion.
Naomi is incredibly charming throughout. A seemingly effortless talent for drama combines with a sense of intimacy that makes the whole show feel like you’re sharing a drink with a friend who has all the gossip to tell and all the tea to spill.
American Whore Story brings a touch of gritty Hollywood wonder to the rainy streets of Edinburgh, though only for a while. Naomi has fantastic energy, charm and a wicked sense of fun. If you like long stories about Hollywood, love American Horror Story, or just want to hear an incredible story well told, this one is for you. Passionate and splendid, go see this show. Simply fabulous.”
