Jessica Fostekew

From Thurs 16 May View Venues, Dates & Times

“I exist in real life but am also a comedian, actor and writer,” says Jessica Fostekew. “Since 2008 I’ve been throwing this job around like you would a walnut in a sock.”  Realising herself to be a feminist “the very first time somebody said: You’re really funny for a woman”, Jessica gets her comedy inspiration from her life, her family and, er, witchcraft - although reassuringly reveals that the latter source provides only around one per cent of her material! 

“I'm not a comedian in order to abuse people or to get laid,” Jessica wrote in the Huffington Post. “I want to make people laugh. I'm there to be judged on my jokes. I've had everything shouted at me, from “My tits are better than yours” to “When’s the raffle?" but it's never been meant to hurt me.”
