Jo Enright
CHORTLE AWARD WINNER – BEST FEMALE COMIC 2002
LEICESTER COMEDY FESTIVAL COMEDIAN OF THE YEAR 1996
For almost
two decades the highly acclaimed pintsize comedienne Jo Enright has crafted a
completely unique style of stand-up comedy. As well as performing it both
on television and radio, Jo also thrives on live theatre performances, winning
several comedy awards including the 2002 Chortle Award for ‘The Best Female
Circuit Comic’ and the 2001 ‘Best Female on the Jongleurs Comedy Circuit’
award.
Alongside
stand-up she is in demand as a character actress appearing as the lead female
‘Beverley’ in Peter Kay’s Phoenix Nights (C4), ‘Cara’ in Lab Rats (BBC1) and
most recently in Peter Kay’s Britain's Got The Pop Factor and Possibly a New
Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly On Ice, playing the lead
female ‘Jackie’. Add to that TV and Radio credits including Alan Partridge,
Time Trumpet, Ideal and Chris Addison’s Civilisation.
An excellent
actress who plays on those abilities in her stand-up act, making full use of a
wide variety of voices and characters, producing a charming and endearing
performance that has you in the palm of her hand.
“Jo Enright
is one of the most naturally gifted comic talents I’ve ever seen. I’d put
her in the same league as Julie Walters.” Peter Kay
“A great
comedienne” Jack Dee
