Maidstone Comedian Angela Barnes brings 'Hot Mess' tour home
‘Hot Mess’ earned glowing reviews at this summer's Edinburgh Fringe Festival
Maidstone stand-up comedian Angela Barnes brings her show ‘Hot Mess’, which earned glowing reviews at this summer's Edinburgh Fringe Festival, to her hometown this February.
Angela (Mock The Week, Live at the Apollo, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and former chair of BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz) has good intentions but trying to live herr best life, as it turns out, is really bloody hard.
Angela Barnes swapped a career in health and social care for stand-up in 2010 and hasn't looked back. Within just a couple of years she had won the BBC New Comedy Award, and has now gone on to UK tours and starring as a regular on BBC’s Mock the Week and Live at the Apollo, and Hypothetical on Dave.
She is a firm favourite on BBC Radio 4, having featured on The Now Show and The News Quiz – including a recent stint as the host – and she has also hosted BBC Radio 4 Extra’s Newsjack.
Besides this, Angela co-hosts the popular podcast We Are History with John O’Farrell (Acast).
