Angie McEvoy

‘Her conversational delivery is a treat but the chatty tone conceals some surprisingly cutting routines’. The Guardian

Angie McEvoy has a sweet and laid back stage persona, fused with a dry and cutting wit. She regularly performs around the UK, including major venues such as The Comedy Store and Jongleurs.

'First impressions can be deceptive, and her sweet smile conceals a wonderfully cynical view of the world'. Chortle

Angie launched her career at the Edinburgh Festival in 2000, when she was voted runner-up in the BBC New Comedy Awards. She has since become a very skilled performer and achieved critical acclaim.

Angie's Festival credits include Leicester Comedy Festival, Belfast Comedy Festival and Edinburgh Festival (Big Value Show). She's also performed in Amsterdam and Berlin and as part of the OTK Roadshow.

Angie is excellent at writing comedy 'to order' for television discussion shows, panel games and radio shows. She is good at working under pressure and can produce material around broad issues.

She had written her own appearances on Richard & Judy (Ch4) on subjects as diverse as the Modern-Day Mother-In-Law Joke, 1930's Advice for Young Brides and the 'Good Idea a Day' Website. She is a regular contributor to the Vanessa Feltz Show (BBC London) and has written topical material for The Jeremy Vine Show (BBC Radio 2) RI:SE (Ch4) and the LBC Weekend Breakfast Show. She also appeared on and wrote material for the Topical News Quiz 'Pilau Talk' for Anglia Television.

Angie has also written numerous parodies and comic messages for ZeProd, a leading mobile-phone-message provider, and recently contributed as a researcher/writer to the humour book "Practical Spying: A Handbook For Everyday Espionage," to be published later this year in the U.S. by National Geographic Books.
