Fleabag originated as a Kickstarter campaign in 2013

Carla and I watched all 12 episodes of Fleabag in 4 nights. If you haven't seen it yet, it's a British dramedy about a London cafe owner (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) dealing with a tragedy, a neurotic sister, and a newly-widowed dad and his passive-aggressive girlfriend. It ran for two seasons and won multiple Emmys: Outstanding Comedy Series, Lead Actress – Comedy Series, Supporting Actress – Comedy Series (Olivia Colman), and another Supporting Actress – Comedy Series (Sian Clifford)

I just found out Fleabag began as a one-woman show, written and performed by Waller-Bridge, funded in 2013 on Kickstarter. The campaign raised £3,955.
