Biography.
Catherine has fast become one of the most sought-after comedians in the UK and Ireland. She took her debut solo show, Immaculate, to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018 to widespread critical acclaim, with The Times describing it as “the sort of perfectly structured Edinburgh debut you always hope for and rarely get to see”.
She returned to the festival in 2019 with her second hour-long show, Lemon. It enjoyed a month of sold-out performances and excellent reviews before Catherine took the show on a UK and Irish tour, including a run of jam-packed performances at London’s Soho Theatre Mainspace. Her new show, This Isn’t For You, will tour the UK & Ireland next year.
Catherine co-hosted BBC Sounds Podcast and Radio 4 show You’ll Do and has appeared on multiple radio shows including The Now Show, The News Quiz, Museum of Curiosity and A Good Read.
She also founded and co-hosts (with Helen Bauer) award-winning online stand-up gig Gigless. The gig has won a JOE.ie Award for Best Online Show and Catherine won a Chortle Award for Legend of Lockdown on the back of its success.
Catherine and Helen now host their weekly podcast Trusty Hogs.
