Jarred Christmas

Jarred Christmas has a unique style that deftly mixes gags with storytelling. He has a dynamic onstage persona and the ability to improvise and roll with anything that's thrown his way, making his comedy sizzle with originality.
Full of passion and charisma Jarred takes the audience on a hilarious thrill ride of laughs and gasps with an edge of anger that manifests itself in his incredible rants against the small things in our lives. His confidence leaves the audience secure in the knowledge that they are in very capable hands. His material is strong and distinctive, drawn from life experience and random happenings.
Whether performing sets, compering, acting or improvising, Jarred has bundles of talent and will always shine no matter what performance situation he is put in. Give him a room above a pub with an audience of 8, or an audience of 3000 at Glastonbury Festival and he will conquer.
