Sarah Callaghan
There was a real buzz around young, upcoming London comic Sarah Callaghan in Edinburgh last summer. Her breakthrough show, about dreaming of escape from her humdrum life, set out her stall as a sharp, imaginative stand-up with a big future ahead of her. When she did the show in London at the Soho Theatre Callaghan took part in our Rarely Asked Questions series and came across as a lippy, impatient overgrown adolescent with a bit too much attitude. Luckily she was also very funny too. As she is onstage.
I was going to say that Sarah Callaghan is one of comedy's best kept secrets, but she isn’t really that much of a secret. In 2015 she was nominated for the Malcolm Hardee ‘Act Most Likely To Make A Million Quid’ award and she has also been a finalist in the Funny Women and Leicester Square Theatre New Act Competitions. Her 2015 Edinburgh show, Elephant, was a pin-sharp mix of autobiography and stand-up as she stood onstage and talked about her suburban life growing up in the Heathrow flight path and dreaming of escape.
