Finalist Profile: Sarah Callaghan

I was very happy to hear I had made it to the final of the Funny Women Awards. I’ve been working really hard for over a year now, so I’m glad people are enjoying my stuff and that I get to perform to a larger audience in The Leicester Square Theatre.

I would describe my act as fast paced, observational humour told with a youthful twist. Real, straight talking, and hopefully something that everyone of all ages and gender can relate too.

I Live in Uxbridge, North West London.

I work in a pub and if I had a pound for the amount of times a geezer says “tell me a joke” I would be a millionaire.
