Work-in-progress shows from two top comedians ahead of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe

SOPHIE DUKER (WORK-IN-PROGRESS)

Duker’s in town to tell jokes, break hearts and marinate her new show. Not getting a ticket for this would be silly.

As seen on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Mock the Week, Don’t Hate the Playaz, Frankie Boyle’s New World Order and Jonathan Ross’ Comedy Club.

Her Edinburgh Fringe show Venus saw her nominated for the Best Newcomer award. She won the 2021 Funny Women Best Comedy Writer Award, as voted by producers, head writers and executives across the industry.

BELLA HULL (WORK-IN-PROGRESS)

Bella Hull is a London-based stand-up comedian and writer and one of the UK’s most exciting young comedians.

In 2022, Bella brought her debut hour, Babycakes, to the Edinburgh Fringe and subsequently to London’s Soho Theatre to wide acclaim. She regularly plays to sell-out crowds across the UK and her TV appearances include BBC’s Stand Up for Live Comedy, ITV’s The Stand Up Sketch Show and Comedy Central Live. She also co-hosts the Last Night Ever podcast with Jacob Hawley.

As a writer, Bella is working on a script commission with the BBC and her writing has been featured on BBC Radio 4’s Newsjack, Flux Magazine and she is the advice columnist for Quadra magazine.
