‘NOT JUST A COMEDIAN, A PHENOMENON’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE LONDON EVENING STANDARD
What if all your dreams come true and you’ve still got the hump? Laura has spent the last few years selling out shows up and down the country; she has supported Jack Whitehall, Michelle de Swarte, Alan Davies, and Jason Manford and appeared on multiple panel shows including QI, Would I Lie To You, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and Live at The Apollo of which she will have appeared twice. She’s even beaten cancer; she’s done all the alternative healing you could shake a stick at – and she still thinks everyone’s a d**khead. It can’t just be her, can it? Maybe she needs more sleep or maybe she was just born aggy
