‘Criminally funny’ ★★★★ The Scotsman “Hilarious” ★★★★★ Broadway Baby
Liverpool’s Alex Stringer is celebrated for her hysterically sarcastic material and deadpan delivery. A proud teetotal, bisexual comic, she broke out as a Chortle Hotshot and earned an Ish Comedy Award nomination for Best Newcomer at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Her highly acclaimed debut hour, Happy Hour, brilliantly reframes her journey through addiction, rehab, and achieving sobriety in 2017 into deeply authentic, tender, and mischievous comedy.
