Jayde Adams is bringing her critically acclaimed show Jayde Adams is Jayded to Downstairs at the Soho Theatre from the 11th – 16th December, following her sell-out run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in the Plesasance Courtyard.
Growing up, Jayde Adams was Bristol’s most under-achieving people pleaser. Her obsession with making people laugh to get them to like her, in a world where being liked is now a currency, has cost Jayde her dignity and damaged her social life on many painfully hilarious occasions. Jayde has picked up some surprising abilities in an effort to make more friends and this new show is a love song to making buddies.
Jayde saved herself a whole lot of money in therapy last year doing a show about something she hadn’t yet come to terms with – the loss of her sister Jenna – and hopefully this new show about popularity, the power of friendship and, above all, love will take her a step further on her road to recovery. Expect emotion, opera, life lessons from Forrest Gump, music and a whole lotta laughter.
Jayde can currently be seen in a guest role in Sky One’s eagerly awaited series Sick Note starring Nick Frost and Rupert Grint. Jayde also will feature in Comedy Central’s brand new series Roast Battle, hosted by Jimmy Carr and judged by Katherine Ryan and Russell Brand, roasting comedian Alex Edelman and will also host an improv pilot, Say Whaaat?, for Comedy Central with the USA’s Impractical Jokers (both will air in 2018).
