Lily Maryon is a Bristol-based actor, writer, and character comedian, and a member of the sketch collective Biscuit Barrel. A Sketch Off 2024 semi-finalist, she performs regularly across the UK alternative comedy scene—appearing either as her chaotic, alter ego Princess Sparkles or by joyfully making up jokes on the spot.
Step into the not-so-glittery world of Princess Sparkles — a professional princess-for-hire who’s very available, a teeny bit unstable, and just that little bit too much. Appearing at five-year-old birthday parties somewhere near you! She’s flustered, running late, and it seems more than just her costume is coming apart at the seams…
Want to feel like a child again? Ever worked with children? Ever wondered why people warn against it?
Prepare to be transported straight back to childhood as Princess Sparkles throws you into a chaotically fun-filled birthday extravaganza — complete with games,“magic,” and stories gone wildly off-script. But beware: she is definitely not Elsa. And this party might not be suitable for children… or adults… or anyone, really.
As her crown begins to slip, so does her grip on reality — and the harder she tries to tell the perfect story, the more the threads start to unravel.
Lily Maryon’s debut show is an unhinged hour of character comedy with a theatrical twist, placing the audience in the role of the children as Sparkles fights to keep her reputation — and herself — intact.
This is one of many excellent shows you can see as part of The Bristol Comedy Festival 2026. Make sure to check out everything else on offer via their homepage.
