Reviews
“naughty politics”
"The girl can sing! Her performances are remarkable because she seems genuinely thrilled to be on stage, radiating sheer enthusiasm with every shimmy.”
“You’ve got good comedy. You’ve got a great Penelope Cruz impression and you’ve got a great set of tits.”
“her performance is funny and emotionally honest and she has stage presence to spare.”
"A dynamically talented woman."
“a world where sexy and funny collide. It’s quite rare for someone as beautiful as Lady Scoutington to develop an interesting personality – much less a funny one – under such a pretty face, simply because they don’t have to. Lucky for us, Scoutington is a different sort.”
Scout is a breath of fresh air on the comic scene...her presence and her sense of wit is to say the least... Extraordinary!!!
"New York City's newest queen of late night comedy!"
“Hot AND funny”
“With stage presence to spare she has any audience in the palm of her hand. Creative, charming and so versatile Scout does it all and will keep you laughing and in love the whole time.”
“[She] will dizzy you with a dizzying onslaught of dizzying eye and sound candy.”
“Scout Durwood is a charismatic performer with an attractive, smoky voice, and shines in this musical story of sex workers in New York on election night, 2008.”
"If we had a penny for every time Scout does a split, we'd have like 75 cents!"
