From pedantic dinner dates to coping with annoying friends, Jocelyn's life provides a rich seam of humour."

A run through of It's Jocelyn will take place at The Albany venue in London next Tuesday (13th October).

The star will be joined on stage by an ensemble cast comprising of Curtis Walker, Ninia Benjamin and Kevin J.
