Claire Parker

Claire has an amazing stage presence and her assured and comfortable style holds an audience firmly in her comedy grip. She is one of only a few comedians whose life is so bizarre and challenging for audiences that they are held memorised by her journey. One minute you're laughing out loud the next you're transfixed by what she's going to tell you next.

Her performances are a mix of acerbic, witty observations through to probably the most unusual impression of Jimmy Savile on the circuit

"Claire Parker, lesbian transgender stand-up, provides comic insight, perky sexual politics and a personality somewhere between Jo Brand and Jack Dee." - GScene
"please welcome on stage ... the mic is on and a woman with a large presence and a distinct voice has arrived and 20 minutes later leaves to a raptuous applause from a full house at the Kitchen Garden Cafe in Kings Heath, Birmingham. Claire Parker engaged a packed audience with her razor sharp humour and satirical wit..come back soon, you were huge!" - Review @ The Kitchen Garden Café Birmingham
