More familiar from being part of sketch comedy troupe “Jigsaw” Nat is also pursuing a solo stand-up career.
As you would expect in July she is touring her Edinburgh show in preview form and duly arrived with notes, voice recorder and a bottle of water. It wasn’t a large audience on this hot Cardiff Wednesday but she quickly won us over with stories explaining why she is single and how she is coping in her 30’s.
This is personal insight territory especially when she explains in some detail her relationship with a comedian she names. Obviously, this is work in progress and doesn’t flow naturally yet but she has a good rapport with the audience especially when deciding whether our laughter was strong enough for her to drink her water.
A lot of modern comedy is anecdotal and can be quite bland. Tonight, however, I felt I was in the presence of an unusual personality who wasn’t worried about portraying herself in a less than favourable light. Funny and undoubtedly will improve by next month.
Head to Laughing Horse at the Counting House in Edinburgh and you won’t be disappointed. (And amazingly it’s free).
