Jules O’Brian is a former English teacher turned stand-up comic who began performing in her late 40s, and quickly charmed audiences with her relaxed, warm, and chatty style. Known for her playful crowd‑interaction, she explores themes of ageing, body hang‑ups, parenting, dating, and the "helpful" advice women receive, as seen in her one‑woman show Avoid Excessive Cleavage. She was shortlisted for Funny Women 2021 and nominated for Birmingham Comedy Festival’s Breaking Talent in 2022.
