Quirky comedienne Pippa Evans is one of the best young character acts on the UK circuit.
Her 2008 Fringe show Pippa Evans and Other Lonely People earned her an if.comedy 'Best Newcomer' nomination, one of the highest plaudits a comedian can receive.
Her characters range from a Kiwi counsellor to an American folk singer (Loretta Maine, her most popular act) to Amangela, a cat-obsessed spinster. A former drama student, her acting skills are superb; while her characters are usually oddballs there are enough flashes of realism to make them convincing.
