Jarred Christmas
New Zealand-born stand-up Jarred Christmas is a veritable comedy firecracker onstage, shooting out hilarious ideas in all sorts of different directions. He has picked up numerous awards since relocating to the UK and has become one of the circuit's most in-demand comperes. This weekend however, he is putting his compering boots away for a night to perform as one of the guests at the first-ever Knebworth Comedy Festival.
Every now and again I receive Facebook comments from circuit comedians telling me that I spend all my time swanning in and out of the Soho Theatre and the Eventim Apollo and don’t experience what it is like at the pub-based comedy club grass roots level. Well last night I did go to a comedy club in a pub, but to be perfectly honest the acts were so good and the atmosphere so conducive to comedy that I suspect I still don’t know what it is like at the coal face. Good sight lines, good air-conditioning, good audience, good acts.
