Comedians aren’t just at risk of cabin fever during this time of social distancing and self-isolation, gig cancellations have meant not just loss of earnings but also fewer chances to try out new material or build audiences. However, being a creative lot, comedians have been flexing their comedy muscles online, using YouTube, Twitch, Twitter and other sites to connect with audiences, new and established alike. To help you get your comedy fix, every week we’ll be putting together a list of projects we’ve spotted online by funny women…
2020 Funny Women Awards semi-finalist Ania Magliano will be hosting a charity comedy gig with a fantastic line up currently being announced to raise money for Women’s Aid on 25th August. To get tickets for the Zoom link click here!
The Kitchen Sink is a warm and friendly, weekly comedy chat show, hosted by Sarah Bridgeman and Lucy Orchard. Every Thursday at 6 pm they will meet virtually on Twitch.TV/tkitchensink where they chat about anything that’s going on in their lives before welcoming a guest, usually from the comedy world; past guests have included Britain’s Got Talent semi-finalist Barbara Nice amongst others.
2014 Funny Women Awards winner Jayde Adams will be hosting the final Save Live Comedy gig at the Clapham Grand on 23rd August. There are limited tickets available to attend the show or you can watch online. For more information click here!
