…”She’s got words on a string like so many yoyos, and her lines sparkle with wit and panache”… – the Scotsman

Stand-up poet Jude Simpson performs her unique blend of observational comedy, witty wordplay, poetry, rap and song at theatres, festivals and other venues around the UK.

Jude has been variously described as “a polite suburban hip-hopper”, ”utterly charming”, ”impossible not to enjoy”, “a cross between Eminem and Joyce Grenfell” and someone with the unusual ability to leave you feeling “warm inside and content with the world”
