Since
bursting onto the scene in March 2002, Jojo Sutherland has climbed the
comedy ladder at an alarming pace. She regularly plays at comedy clubs
across Scotland and the North of England and is also in great demand for
corporate gigs.
As a
regular at The Stand Comedy Club in Edinburgh and Glasgow, she alternates
between her regular set and compering. Her "healthy neglect"
approach to parenting forms the backbone to her material interspersed with
everyday grievances and motherly advice.
This
charismatic mother of four goes to great lengths to glean material, the
most extreme example being her starring role in Channel 4's award winning
series " Wife Swap" That experience not only features in her
stand-up with hysterical results but has been made into a full length show
called "Wife Idol - The Rivals" which she has written and
performs with her own theatre company The One Handed Women.
As an
accomplished actress Jojo frequently appears on stage and undertakes work
from a variety of fields including radio presenting and improvisational
forum theatre, she has also appeared in several short films.
Jojo
was a finalist in the inaugural Funny Women Comedy Awards and was part of
two world record breaking events - Stand Up 150 and One Big Laugh.
Jojo is
a regular contributor for Radio Scotland's " Fred MacAulay Show"
