Sophie Garrad - Work in Progress - May

Come for a night of comedy - I will be testing out some of my new jokes for my next show, A Period Drama! x I’ve always hated period dramas… until I found myself starring in one. On December 8th 2025, I went in for surgery: an endometriosis diagnostic laparoscopy. I was terrified I was putting myself under the knife for absolutely no reason, not even for a new set of boobs, especially after years of doctors insisting I was “fine”. What followed was the most chaotic, surreal and eventful 48 hours of my life… and the sudden realisation that I probably need checking into the Priory, because I’m seriously addicted to attention. A Period Drama is a stand-up comedy show about my story - and about the quiet, shared experiences women are rarely allowed to laugh about.
