The organisers of The Women In Comedy Festival know its importance, it is vital, “as undiscovered talent has had limited outlets and exposure for nearly 4 years now, and the lack of many festivals recently. Our Industry also needs healing, to come together again and socialise, network, showcase, learn, teach and reconnect.”
MEET 2025 STAGE AWARD FINALIST: KAY NICHOLSON
Kay Nicholson tells us what she loves about stand up – “It’s all you. It’s the highest risk & the highest reward. You can’t hide behind anything, so when they laugh it’s all for you, but that means if they don’t laugh, again, it’s all on you. It’s a constant knife edge & I love it! Also, providing people with a laugh when the world is the way it is something I am very passionate about. Everyone needs the word to be a bit brighter right now.”
