Madeleine Brettingham is a writer-performer and rising star on the stand-up circuit, who’s recently scooped a string of competition wins including winning the prestigious So You Think You’re Funny 2025 and taking silver in Funny Women in the same year, a unique double.
In 2025, she also won Bath New Act of the Year, West End New Woman Comedian of the Year and Beat the Frog World Series. She’s been praised for her “distinctive worldview” (Chortle), “tight and gag-packed” writing (Bruce Dessau), and “knack for blending offbeat observations with pacey, unexpected punchlines” (The List).
“A suffer-no-fools attitude that own the stage, a formidable gag rate and a precision with language that conjures up the perfect images” - Chortle.
