2011 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

Katherine Ryan, award-winning comedian and star of Channel 4's cutting edge new comedy series, Campus, is proud to present her highly anticipated debut show at The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2011.

The product of a strict Irish father and a glitzy Canadian 'stagemom', Katherine Ryan won neither friends nor pageant titles growing up. Try as she might to shed her questionable perspectives and super-sparkly nature, she's not sure we can ever truly escape our childhood indoctrinations.

Little Miss Conception is a dazzling hour packed with hilarious stories, twisted observations, and invigorating pop music parodies from this fresh, award-winning newcomer.

Katherine was the Nivea Funny Women Awards Winner in 2008 and is a fresh and bitingly funny addition to UK stand-up. She recently filmed a role in a new version of Give Us A Clue for Talkback and Freemantle, along with appearances on Big Brother's Big Mouth on E4 and a new pilot for Channel 4 and is currently developing material for a new panel show for E4.

Katherine is also a talented actress and appeared in Routes, which was nominated for three British Interactive Media Awards (including one for Best Online Content), a BAFTA in the 2009 Children's BAFTA Awards (Interactive Category) and also for the 2009 Writer's Guild Video Game Award.

Most recently she starred as Georgina 'George' Bryan in Victoria Pile's Channel 4 series Campus.
