**WELCOME to the Brighton meeting** of the self-help group *Jane McDonald Anonymous*. Let **Grant McLachlan**, the newly-elected leader of an elite group of Jane superfans called the *Cruisettes*, steer you through your 8-step voyage, from admitting to celebrating your obsession with everything that is Jane McDonald.

Grant McLachlan devised the show after he was filmed at his school for the Channel 5 show *Jane & Friends*.

Thanks to her award-winning *Cruising with Jane McDonald* series, she is at the top of her career, so this show will speak to anyone who feels that they need a bit of showtune sparkle, camp banter and Jane McDonald in their lives – and frankly, who doesn’t?

Grant is a lifelong member of the Jane McDonald fan club and is an out-and-proud superfan. While this is his debut Brighton Fringe show, he performed the show at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018 to Jane fans, old and new.

### *“There’s so much to commend about this debut…it will be exciting to see what McLachlan will offer as he grows in confidence as a performer.”…..* The Wee Review, 2018.
