Always Be Comedy: Michelle de Swarte & Glenn Moore & Rachel Galvo - at The Bedford in Balham!

Michelle De Swarte is an actress, comedian and writer. Born in South London, Michelle was spotted by a model scout at the age of 19 and moved to New York, where she became heavily involved in the comedy scene.

Since moving back to London she starred as a series regular in Katherine Ryan’s Netflix series The Duchess, as well as playing the lead role of Natasha in HBO/Sister Pictures series The Baby.

Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Glenn Moore is a comedian, actor and one of the best and most prolific joke writers in the country.

Glenn is a regular face on TV, having appeared on Mock The Week (BBC), Rob Delaney’s Stand Up Central (Comedy Central) and The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2).

He is a staff writer on CITV’s sketch comedy show Scrambled, and has written for BBC’s The Mash Report, Play To The Whistle, and Russell Howard’s Good News. He’s also known for his silly, off-beat one-liners on Twitter, which have earned him a huge following.

Rachel Galvo is an Irish comedian based in London who has burst onto the live scene, making waves on both sides of the Irish Sea. As a 2023 graduate of Mountview’s prestigious Musical Theatre program, Galvo combined her interest in feminism and comedy—explored in her thesis on Women and Feminism in Comedy—with her wit and natural stage presence, to launch her own stand-up career.
