Stand Up Comedy - SARAH CALLAGHAN - Live in Porto

Sarah Callaghan is an award-winning comedian and writer.

In 2014 she was named as ‘One to Watch’ by Time Out and in 2015 she took her critically-acclaimed debut show ‘Elephant’ to the Edinburgh Fringe. A confessional exploration of escape and ambition, Elephant played to packed houses and received great reviews across the board. Sarah was widely heralded as an exciting new comedic voice, a status cemented by her Malcolm Hardee Award nomination for ‘Act Most Likely To Earn A Million Quid’. Elephant subsequently toured to the prestigious Soho Theatre for a run of shows in 2016, again to acclaim, and then on to the Perth and Sydney Comedy Festivals in Australia.
She appeared on E4’s Virtually Famous as a guest on Seann Walsh’s team also writing and performing sketches on @elevenish (ITV2) and The Great Xmas Rant (ITV2) the following year.

In 2018 she took her show 'The Ballad of Sarah Callaghan' to the New Zealand International Comedy Festival and made her TV stand up debut in the same country.
Other tv credits include Rhod Gilbert’s Growing Pains (Comedy Central), Life and Rhymes (Sky Arts) and The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2).

ABOUT OUR PARTNERS

A. ORBIS

In addition, Comedy Cachet is proud to support a good cause and we are donating part of the profits to the ORBIS Foundation.

ORBIS - Cooperação e Desenvolvimento is a Portuguese NGO for development. They have multiple cooperation for development projects in Portuguese-speaking countries, focusing mostly on access to education. They also have their own fair trade project and, in Portugal, they are active in the areas of Human Rights promotion and education for sustainable development.

At the moment, they are focusing their fundraising efforts towards the project "O Sonho Nasce Aqui"!. They are partnering with an Angolan NGO - Okulongisa - to build a school in Bairro Coragem. This school will host about 350 children from the neighborhood who, otherwise, have to walk 14 km to the nearest school. Building this school will drastically reduce school drop-out rates and prevent children from being exposed to the dangers and exhaustion of the current commute. It is also a chance for these children to have access to better opportunities in the future and empower the community.

The budget is €22.000 (22 K), including three classrooms, bathrooms, and a small room with a kitchenette for one teacher (who will probably not be from Bairro Coragem).

All licensing, concession of terrain, contractors, and a permanent teacher are assured; we "only" need to raise the money and start the construction work.
