Alice Cockayne is a working-class northern comedian, clown, performer, and writer. She is an actor and writer on the BBC Radio 4 show, Time of the Week.
Her 2023 show, I Showered Before I Came, was nominated for Best Newcomer at the ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards and featured in the British Comedy Guide's Top 20 shows. She is currently performing her latest show, Licensed. Professional. Trained. Qualified., to sell-out audiences and rave reviews.
Her follow-up promises even more wigs, unhinged characters and messy musical numbers
‘Best of the fest’ The Guardian
She’s an enigma, but a very funny one
★★★★ Time Out
A menagerie of freakish yet strangely recognisable alter-egos, all of which the comic inhabits with utter conviction
★★★★ Chortle
