Meg Jäger - A Beautiful Mind

Even hungover from her birthday the night before, Meg Jäger is at the top of her game (and FAR older than she looks!)

Ballsy enough to accuse Don Bradman of being autistic and Basil Brush of sexual impropriety, Meg is shielded by her own bubble of reality, developed in her youth to make her impenetrable to bullies and the debilitating effects of acid reflux.

This confidence also gives her the ability to draw out the spaces between set-ups and punchlines much longer than they have any right to be, and utterly break you on the third variation of a joke she seemingly wasn’t too fussed about landing the first two times around.

Meg is an absolute joy to watch on stage, and if the cheeky, full-faced grin that creeps through her dead-pan facade every now and then is any indication, I think she’s having a ball up there too.
