HASTINGS COMEDY FESTIVAL: Desiree Burch - The Golden Wrath (work in progress) (£12.50)

‘The Mash Report’, ‘Taskmaster’ & ‘Live at the Apollo’ star, and
voice of Netflix’s ‘Too Hot to Handle’ launches a new show about what
happens when the mask slips off and beliefs are betrayed–whether they be
about one’s youth, body, identity or nationality.

As a woman who has narrowly escaped making life and experiencing death,
Desiree stakes her claim as the right voice for the wrongest of times,
offering insights into middle age, social demise, and other apocalypses.
“Near-perfect” –The Standard.

Desiree exploded onto the UK comedy scene, winning the 2015 Funny Women
Award. Since then, she has appeared on, ‘Live at the Apollo’ (BBC),
‘Have I Got News For You’ (BBC), ‘Qi’ (BBC), ‘8 Out of 10 Cats’ (Channel
4), ‘Mock The Week’ (BBC2),’Insert Name Here’ (BBC2), ‘Frankie Boyle’s
New World Order (BBC2). and co-hosted Netflix series, “Flinch”. Desiree
recorded her critically acclaimed, debut Edinburgh festival show, ‘This
Is Evolution” as a TV special for, ‘Live From The BBC ‘(BBC3) and has
recorded a 2nd stand up special for Comedy Central. Her recent Edinburgh
hour, ‘Unfuckable’ was a sold out hit at The Edinburgh Fringe and went
onto two fantastic, sold out runs at The Soho Theatre.
