About the show
Gobby Girl Productions presents Gobby Flicks Comedy, a mixed bill fundraiser celebrating funny women on and off screen. Featuring stand up from TV regulars and local up and coming talent as well as a screening of a short film.
Proceeds go to support the Gobby Girl Film Fund. This fund will support female writers and directors in producing their own comedy shorts that will be screened at future nights. A study in 2022 found only a third of UK television directors are female. We want to help redress the balance. Have a laugh and feel smug about supporting a good cause while you do it!
Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
Featuring
Jo Enright
Birmingham's most prestigious female comic who is 'fresh, honest and thumpingly funny' (What's On). Her comedy is broad, lively and poignant, centred around autobiographical humour. She may be tiny, but her jokes are huge! Jo hasstarred alongside Steve Coogan in I’m Alan Partridge and with Peter Kay in Phoenix Nights. Other comedy roles include in BBC Two Sitcom Lab Rats playing the part of Cara and on BBC/HBO’s Life’s Too Short as Warwick Davis’ wife Sue. Jo has crafted a completely unique style of stand-up comedy. As well as accepting numerous invitations to perform it both on television and radio, Jo also thrives on live theatre performances, for which she has won several comedy awards including the Chortle Award for The Best Female Circuit Comic and Best Female on the Jongleurs Comedy Circuit award. ‘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
