The silliest of comedy for the scariest of days, don't miss Jessica Fostekew's most rousing and uplifting show yet, Iconic Breath.
Star of Live at the Apollo, regular on The Guilty Feminist podcast and Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Show nominated stand-up, Jess is back on tour with a brand new show about tolerance and temperance.
Jess can feel herself becoming an emotional wildebeest right when her world (and the whole world, thanks) demands cool, collected ultra detached saint-like kindness and understanding. S**t.
You’ve seen Jess on BBC’s QI, Celebrity University Challenge and Richard Osman’s House of Games. From Travel Man on C4 and World’s Most Dangerous Roads on Dave. You know her from her two BBC R4 series of Sturdy Girl Club plus her podcasts Hoovering and Contender Ready.
‘A new fiercely funny strain of comedy that’s her own’ ★★★★ Times

‘All-round comedy powerhouse’ ★★★★ Skinny
