Jessica Fostekew: Iconic Breath
Advertisement
A monster’s guide to 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.
She goes digging around in her DNA for answers and finds so many beautiful horrors. Witness her effort to become a brand-new mythical, mystical ‘coper’. OR NOT. She gets cancelled, she gets touched and she gets a dolphin-based epiphany all in one show. The silliest of comedy for the scariest of days from Edinburgh Best Show Award Nominee.
You’ve seen Jess on BBC’s QI, Live at the Apollo, 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 podcasts The Guilty Feminist and Hoovering. And, of course, from new mighty smash-hit Gladiator’s fan-podcast Contender Ready which Jess co-hosts with Olympic weightlifting superstar Emily Campbell.
‘A new fiercely funny strain of comedy that’s her own’ ★★★★ The Times
‘A loud, lively and vital voice’ ★★★★ The Evening Standard
‘She wears her smarts on her sleeve’ ★★★★ The Guardian
‘All-round comedy powerhouse’ ★★★★ The Skinny
