Have you ever wondered what your teacher was thinking? Let Facebook’s Mrs Smith enlighten you! Mrs Smith was an ordinary teacher in an ordinary school until she went viral on Facebook, got invited to the Edinburgh Fringe and accidentally became a stand-up comedian. She is currently on tour with 1,2,3, Eyes on Me, which is the follow-up to her sell-out show of 2023 See me!, which she debuted at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe, never having done stand-up before in her life.
