Get ready for a night of back-to-back laughs with a comedy double-bill in Komedia's Electric Bar!

Get ready for a night of back-to-back laughs with a comedy double-bill in Komedia's Electric Bar! Sooz Kempner: Is Ugly Work in Progress Award-winning comedian Sooz Kempner (Doom in Doctor Who’s Doom’s Day, Amazon Prime’s Dinner With the Parents) takes a millennial look at ever-changing beauty standards, online trolls and growing up weird. In a society dripping with treatments, injectables and filters is it possible for anyone to feel truly beautiful? "Kempner has funny bones" ★★★★ - Scotsman "Sardonic but breezy...infectious personality" ★★★★ - Morning Star "One of the best atmospheres I’ve experienced at an Edinburgh show" ★★★★ - Broadway World "Brilliant" - LA Times Jessie Nixon: Work In Progress Jessie Nixon is a tour de force comedian with something to say. She just doesn’t know what right now. Forged in the fires of the UK club circuit, Nixon comes to The Electric Bar at Komedia with actual good jokes to tell, but yearns to be more than that, with a show including confessions, music and poems for those who like their stand-up with layers. Your awful boyfriend will like it too. "Her material is warmly delivered but has a bit of bite" - Chortle "Her material is strong, and it’s clear she has far more show ready material in the locker" - Clownster Comedy "She doesn’t remind me of anyone I’ve seen before, which is a good sign. And she makes me laugh" - Bruce Desseau (Beyond the Joke)
