Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 10th January 2017Review - Tony Law: A Law Undo His-elf What Welcome
My first visit to Chapter Arts Cardiff is a memorable one. I am attending the Go Faster Stripe DVD recording of Tony Law's latest stand up hour: A Law Undo His-elf What Welcome and am unsure what to expect from the zany Canadian comic this time around. I've heard he's changed a lot in the past few months.

Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 24th September 2016David Brent: Life On The Road review
Ricky Gervais has recaptured the essence of The Office in an adventure that was probably not needed but is certainly not unnecessary, and I am grateful that the character of David Brent has been revived, with live dates for next year having already sold out.
Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 14th September 2016August: comedian of the month #31, Jayde Adams
As the winner of 2014's Funny Women Award and nominee for Best Newcomer at this year's Edinburgh Comedy Awards, Jayde Adams is a name and a voice you will certainly be hearing a lot more of in the coming months.
Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 7th September 2016Fleabag, series 1 review
At first glance BBC Three's new sitcom Fleabag may give the illusion of being like any other modern day sitcom. A young, attractive but troubled lead with a turbulent love life, an uptight sister and a struggling small business; what more could writer and Fleabag Phoebe Waller-Bridge bring to the table? But within the first episode the narrative is already swept in an interesting direction, with the suggestion of darker aspects to this person's life than one might previously have assumed.

Heggie is a no-nonsense Aussie performer. A builder by day as well as being a husband and father, he's a busy man and he clearly doesn't spare much time for messing around.
