Jenny Eclair Brings Her Life and Laughs to Aberdeen
The Perrier Award winner will be at the Tivoli on 25 February with her new show, Jokes, Jokes, Jokes.
Comedian, novelist, and unapologetic show-off Jenny Eclair is bringing her latest show, Jokes, Jokes, Jokes Live!, to Aberdeen’s Tivoli Theatre on Tuesday, 25 February. Inspired by her hilarious memoir of the same name, the show offers a no-holds-barred look at Eclair’s colourful life and four decades of comedy.
From her cider-soaked drama school days to becoming the first woman to win the prestigious Perrier Award, Eclair’s journey has been as chaotic as it has been inspiring. Now, she’s inviting audiences to join her for a night of laughter, stories, and a touch of nostalgia as she shares everything she can remember before she forgets it all.
Even the messiest chapters in life can be revisited
With her trademark wit and irreverence, Eclair reflects on her misadventures: punk poetry, bad boyfriends, bedsit blues, and a long-running career that has seen her transition from grumpy young woman to grumpy old woman, podcaster, author, and nana. The show blends stand-up with storytelling, proving that even the messiest chapters in life can be revisited with a sense of humour.
Eclair is known for her sharp observations and fearless honesty and remains one of Britain’s most celebrated comedians. Her ability to find hilarity in the ordinary—and the extraordinary—has kept audiences laughing for over 40 years. This latest show is a testament to her enduring appeal, combining laugh-out-loud moments with heartfelt reflections on life’s ups and downs.
Punk poetry to animal impressions
True to form, Eclair promises a few surprises for her Aberdeen audience. Expect everything from punk poetry to animal impressions, with a possible baritone nursery rhyme thrown in for good measure. In her own words: “Expect the unexpected!”
