It’s 2021 and Jenna Suffern is a triple menace: a freshly dumped, freshly unemployed, “loveable Lexapro lesbian”. To high all of it off? They thought they’d dive into the world of stand-up as a fresh-onto-the-scene comic.
“I did get up comedy for the primary time on Sunday, was made redundant from my job on Monday, and dumped by my girlfriend that I lived with on Thursday,” Suffern tells Star Observer.
Reduce to 4 years later: you’re getting all the perfect of Jenna’s worst delivered by a now-seasoned performer, with It’s Not Humorous, It’s Non-public at Melbourne International Comedy Festival (MICF).
It’s Not Humorous, It’s Non-public is a self-deprecating love letter to Jenna’s previous relationships, their 18-year-old-cat Mam, and the Actual Housewives franchise.
“Should you like UHauling, co-parenting cats together with your ex girlfriend, and watching an unhealthy quantity of actuality TV to dissociate out of your issues – then this present is for you,” says Suffern.
