Walking the walk with Glynis Trail-Nash: “in These Shoes” Heads to Edinburgh

Back in 2022, I had the pleasure of collaborating with the fabulous Glynis Trail-Nash to create a suite of imagery for her debut cabaret show, In These Shoes. A fashion journalist with a razor-sharp wit and a killer sense of style, Glynis was stepping into the spotlight with a cabaret about shoes, identity, and the unexpected turns life can take.

Our photo shoot captured Glynis in full stride—glamorous, cheeky, and unapologetically herself. It was clear from the start that this show had legs (and heels!) to go far. I am very happy and proud that she is representing the best of Australian culture internationally.

Fast-forward to 2025, and In These Shoes is hitting the international stage at this year’s Edinburgh Comedy Festival. Through sheer determination—and a wonderfully successful crowdfunding campaign—Glynis is taking her show to one of the biggest comedy platforms in the world.

It’s always a joy to see creative work evolve, and I’m thrilled that the images we created together are still helping tell her story. If you’re heading to Edinburgh, don’t miss the chance to see In These Shoes—a smart, stylish, and sharply observed cabaret from a woman who knows how to make an entrance.
