The Comedian's Comedian Podcast

229 - Zoe Coombs Marr

I've never seen such an immediate standing ovation as the one we gave Zoe Coombs-Marr at the end of her show "Trigger Warning" this year. Her multiple award-winning creation "Dave" is a troubled hack comic and the centre of an awesomely meta-textual subversion and dismantling of the craft of comedy. We talk about the range and limits of character work, learn about feminist super-group show "Wild Bore", and find out why she'd be happy to fail if it meant the world changed.  Get ad-free new episodes, bonus content from interviews and much more by joining the Insiders Club at <a href="https://create.acast.com/episodes/9420b137-9707-43d6-a6f1-0eae4a4149e9/www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders" target="_blank">www.comedianscomedian.com/insiders</a> See Stu on tour <a href="http://www.comedianscomedian.com/tour" target="_blank">www.comedianscomedian.com/tour</a> Join the growing Facebook comcompod community <a href="www.facebook.com/groups/ComediansComedianPodcast" target="_blank">HERE</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/comcompod" target="_blank">@ComComPod</a> Hosted on Acast.
