Korinna Gouros

Sorry, My Mum Won't Let Me

  • Australia

Korinna’s hilarious new show spills the tea on her cult-like upbringing, retired-hot-girl past, toxic exes and the unfiltered pursuit of freedom.

Raised under bizarre, hyper-controlling rules where socialising was forbidden and chanting “Ricky Martin” was compulsory, Korinna unpacks what happens when you’ve been trained to be obedient, terrified and a little too enthusiastic about Latin pop.

With wit and raw honesty, she explores being the weird kid, messy relationships, a queer awakening and the pursuit of being average.

Sorry, My Mum Won’t Let Me is a love letter to anyone who’s ever felt judged, othered or controlled, and fought to define themselves anyway. It’s a celebration of the mess we’re taught to hide, how sharing it connects us and how owning it might just set us free.

A rising force in Australia’s comedy scene, Korinna’s stand-up blends absurd storytelling, electric energy and bold honesty.

Part confession. Part chaos. All comedy… Just don’t tell her mum.

'Unique, hilarious and thought-provoking.' The Greek Herald
