Jessica Fostekew: Mettle

Experience the exhilarating journey of Jess, the acclaimed star of BBC’s QI, Live at the Apollo, and C4’s Travel Man, in her brand new stand-up show. This electrifying performance delves into passion, pace, and purpose, showcasing Jess’ unstoppable drive despite life's bizarre twists.

In this uproarious show, Jess shares her tales of her son joining a cult and her cat mastering the art of conversation, yet she remains unflinchingly fine. In fact, she's zooming ahead, pushing boundaries, and striving harder than ever for her desires and necessities.

Jess’ previous triumphs include her sold-out Edinburgh Fringe run and UK tour of "Wench," now available as a special. The uproarious "Hench," nominated for Best Show at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards and winner of Best Show at the Chortle Awards, can be streamed on Amazon Prime.

This powerhouse comedian also co-hosts The Guilty Feminist podcast, hosts her podcast about eating called "Hoovering," and is the star and writer of BBC Radio 4’s "Sturdy Girl Club." Her talent shines in the award-winning sitcom Motherland and the acclaimed feature film Scrapper, winner of the Grand Jury prize at the Sundance Festival.

Jess, a familiar face on popular panel shows from Celebrity Pointless to House of Games, is not just a comedian; she's a force. Don't miss this vibrant and essential voice in comedy.
