Coastal Comedy with Jen Brister

About

After performing in front of the legendary Spike Milligan and receiving the luminous and prestigious title of having ‘a great pair of Bristols,’ Jen knew that comedy was the way forward. So with the help of two jokes and a push up bra she was on her way…

Since that heady day Jen has become a critically acclaimed comedian and performed stand up in clubs all over the UK and international comedy circuits. Jen has written and performed five solo shows, performed with Russell Brand on his radio comedy Cloud Cuckoo for Radio 2, in Kerry Godliman’s sitcom; Kerry’s List for Radio 4 and many more.

“Outrageously Funny” Metro
“Gorgeously talented” Time Out

Opening the show is the hilarious Jim Campbell who has been busy with a chart-topping podcast, an acclaimed book and his personal life exploding. Everyone was right though; it’s good for material. 

 “Charmingly fresh... an hour in Campbell's company will leave you entertained and enlightened” The List ****

“A superb example of how to craft a technically accomplished, winningly performed piece of comedy” Fest ****

Also appearing for your laughing pleasure is George Rigden who is already one of the most exciting, hotly-tipped and sought after new acts on the UK comedy circuit and frequently gigs up and down the country for leading clubs having excelled in a host of new act competitions in his first year of performing.

Rigden’s musical comedy is deliciously dark...he is very good at working the crowd." - Bruce Dessau, beyond the joke.
