Jo Brand
One of the finest comediennes' on the stand up circuit, she is a great choice for any event particularly for those events that need that extra bite!
How the Following was Built
Since leaving her job as a psychiatric nurse in 1987, Jo has built a large following across the UK, male and female alike. She was nominated for the Perrier Award in 1992. Her "Through the Cakehole" series met with great acclaim, as did her 1996 series "All the Way to Worcester".
Diverse Appeal
Her diverse appeal is marked by appearances on such eclectic programmes as "Question Time" (BBC) to "Nevermind the Buzzcocks" and "Countdown" to "They Think It's All Over". She presented "Jo Brand's Commercial Breakdown" and her series, "Jo Brand's Hot Potatoes" was very well received. Jo has written two irreverent books "A Load of Old Balls" and "A Load of Old Ball Crunchers", about leading men and women of history as well as other books such as "It's Different for Girls".
