Celebrity Funny Women on International Women’s Day
Funny Women celebrates International Women’s Day with a fantastic new show, Celebrity Funny Women. A host of female celebrities face the challenge of becoming a Funny Woman, coached and supported by some of Funny Women’s favourite comedians. Well-loved personalities will step out of their comfort zone and perform a short stand-up set in front of a live audience at the London Studios, in support of international development charity ActionAid.
Presenter Jeni Barnett is being trained by Funny Women Awards winner 2007 Andi Osho. Blue Peter legend Janet Ellis is teamed with impressionist Jan Ravens. PR guru and author (and mother to stand-up Josh Howie) Lynne Franks finds her funny bone with magician and comedian Mandy Muden.
The celebrities will perform short live sets, alongside footage of their learning experiences, at The London Studios, ITV’s Television production complex on the South Bank, where many of the UK’s most famous television shows are made. They will be joined on stage by professional Funny Women favourites including TanyaLee Davis and Adams and Rea with musical entertainment from house band Vaginal Tap.
