Laura Moss and Amelia Fritz on ‘A Dinner With The SL*TS’
After the success of our 2025 Camden Fringe Interviews, we thought it only right to attempt a repeat for 2026. So throughout July we published over 60 interviews to give a taste of what to expect from London’s best fringe theatre festival. The plan was to stop there, but as shows are still coming to us asking for interviews, we thought we’d do a few more! But we have to stop soon, we’re also very busy seeing the shows now.
You can find out more about Camden Fringe, along with details of every show playing here. You can also find all of this year’s interviews at here.
Bringing the chaotic energy of a drunk cigarette on the pavement straight to the comedy stage, A Dinner With The SL*TS is a high-octane split-bill turned collaborative comedy frenzy. Created and performed by best friends Laura Moss and Amelia Fritz, the show combines sharp stand-up with an interactive audience dilemma section pulled directly out of a tampon box. Ahead of their Camden Fringe run, where they will skip between Camden Comedy Club and Aces & Eights, the duo sat down to chat about chemistry, audience-funded tequila shots, and building a community of iconic fans across the UK.
If you had to describe the vibe of your show in just one sentence, what would it be and how does it manifest on stage?
Like if those girls who everyone thinks are quite odd but sort of get away with it by being yappy, outspoken and kinda hoe-y did a stand-up comedy show.
Is this version how you originally envisioned it or has it changed drastically since you first put pen to paper?
Initially it was just a split bill comedy show with a 20-30 minute set from each of us. Our first show went great, the only criticism people had was that they wanted to see us on stage together. I think sometimes comics do a split bill together and they’re not really friends or connected in any way, they just want someone to split the hour with (which is absolutely fine!). However, we happened to be super close and have a lot of natural chemistry both as friends and performers, so having a part of the show that we do together actually made total sense. We came up with the idea of getting our audience to write their dilemmas, and put them in our tampon box at the start of the show. We’ve had everything from a question on how to permanently damage someone’s social reputation, to requests asking for a group video telling a nasty ex to fk off. We give the people what they want, and we aren’t stopping anytime soon.
So we can assume that audience interaction is rather important?
Audience interaction is a big part of the show, particularly during the dilemmas section! We bring a sort of girls toilet/drunk cig on the pavement vibe to live comedy. We wouldn’t have the dilemmas section at all if it wasn’t for the audience’s contribution, so it really is a collaborative approach, and we love that. We’ve also had audiences, on multiple occasions, buy us shots of tequila and deliver them to us on stage mid set. We’re very lucky to attract such iconic people to our shows.
Are there any plans for what comes next after the show has finished its run, for you or the show?
We have so many exciting things coming up! We’re bringing the show to Manchester (twice!) once to Creatures Comedy Club (24th Sep), and once to Women In Comedy Festival (10th Oct). We then feature at the Underbelly Boulevard Soho (17th Oct). After which we return to Hastings by popular demand (20th November), and round off back in Brighton at Komedia (6th Dec). Things are far from over though… we’ve eyes on Edinburgh and beyond, watch this space xxxxx
What does “success” look like for you this August, beyond just selling tickets?
I think what we’re really falling in love with, is building up a bit of an audience/fan base of people who really just love what we do. We had a preview in Hastings back in July and were immediately asked back by popular demand from both the venue and local residents. Of course we’re starting small, but that’s where you have to start. We just want to keep making people laugh, and giving them a great night out, and we’ll push that as far as we can.
If you had to describe your show as a colour what would it be?
Does glitter count as a colour?
No, but we’ll let it pass! And if you had to describe your show as a meal?
Champagne, chicken nuggets, and a pack of Vogue cigarettes. It’s a nutritious meal for all the family to enjoy.
If you could perform this show anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Your dad’s boudoir. We think he’d get a lot out of it.
Many thanks to Laura and Amelia for the chat. We’ll pass on our dad’s details to you.
A Dinner with the SL*TS will play at Camden Comedy Club (13 and 27 August) and Aces & Eights (14 and 20 August) as part of Camden Fringe.
