Jordan Brookes
Subscription video-on-demand platform Nextup has added British comedian Jordan Brookes' latest show Body of Work to their comedy catalogue.
Brookes is a critically acclaimed comedian, writer and actor. Fiercely original, Brookes’s style combines observational comedy with a theatrical and absurdist edge.
Comedy producers Fight in the Dog and performer Jordan Brookes have received a grant from CreativeXR to create the prototype for an app called Present. This is the first, and only, comedy project to receive funding of this sort to create something which has never been done before.
The team behind it is Brookes, Ciaran Clarke (sound designer for Brookes' show ‘Bleed’), and Bríd Kirby (co-founder and Producer for Fight in the Dog)
Stand-up comedy streaming platform NextUp has announced the filming of three new comedy specials from Maisie Adam, Eleanor Morton and Jordan Brookes.
They will be filmed across London over the coming weeks and made available to NextUp subscribers worldwide.
"The ones who’ve been around the block, who work for bigger publications, have a greater frame of reference and a better understanding but that’s not always helpful as the amount they’ve seen can make them a bit numb to it – sometimes it needs to be edgy or different just to make them feel something."
Performer Ciaran Dowd speaking to Fringepig about comedy critics.
"Hello, I am your scumbag for the evening." Skilful compere Kiri Pritchard-McLean set the tone for this gig with her very first salvo. For comedians used to dodging the heckles and inflatable cocks at stag and hen dos on a Saturday night this new monthly gig must be a delight. It takes place in a private school in Dulwich in a state-of-the-art theatre that puts a lot of Fringe venues to shame. The audience is receptive and polite, though luckily not too polite to laugh in all the right places.
Update 23/8/17: Jordan Brookes has been nominated for a lastminute.com Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show. See nominees here.
Jordan Brookes is a comedian who has definitely got a very distinctive talent. Once seen he is never forgotten. He is creative, inventive and not scared to try out new things onstage even though they might not necessarily work.
