Üritus: Burning Duck Comedy Club April with Pippa Evans

Pippa Evans is an award-winning comedian, actress, songwriter and improviser. A multi-talented and incredibly versatile performer, she has taken 5 shows to the Edinburgh Fringe bagging a nomination for Best Newcomer in 2008 for debut show ‘Pippa Evans and Other Lonely People’.

Since then Pippa has gone from strength to strength, performing regularly on BBC Radio 4 institution The Now Show as well as making guest appearances on hit TV shows such as Dave’s Alan Davies: As Yet Untitled and Comedy Central’s Drunk History. She has also featured on BBC3’s sketch comedy show Live At The Electric and was one of the regular cast members on BBC2’s comedy impro series Fast and Loose.

Pippa is also a core member of The Showstoppers, the multi-award-winning group who improvise a new musical based on audience suggestions. Pippa has performed with The Showstoppers across the UK and the world, including West End residencies and a six part series for Radio 4. Pippa frequently guests at different improv nights across London and is a semi-regular cast member of The Comedy Store Players.

Fabulously funny
Time Out

Pippa will also be accompanied by Psycho-intense singer-songwriter Loretta Maine, who makes Courtney Love look well-balanced. This pill-popping, booze-abusing, bunny-boiling car-crash of a rock star also has both her own show and her own band, Dog Vagina.

Fresh from trawling the comedy clubs of Britain, Loretta has new songs to sing, new tales to tell and new pain to unleash. With numbers like “These Ain’t My Tits” and the infamous “Chicken Shop” how can you even be questioning your ticket purchase? Don’t you like laughing at other people’s misery? You should be here.

‘A fantastic wreck of a human being and a great comedy conception.’ (Chortle)

'Like Dolly Parton seen through the lens of Mike Leigh... she performs brilliantly observed songs about love, loss and violent revenge (The Guardian)
