HEIDI REGAN
Heidi brings her silly, surreal style to relatable topics like relationships, being the hot one in the couple (we've all been there), and King Alfonso 13th. She offers expert relationship advice based on her extensive experience of TWO whole relationships and makes a case for going back to the time when she repressed all emotions with very stupid jokes.
With more than a decade’s experience as a comedy writer, Heidi enjoyed a meteoric rise through the stand-up comedy ranks. She has won two of the most coveted prizes in comedy; the So You Think You’re Funny? title at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2016, before scooping the BBC New Comedy Award prize in 2017. She has since gigged around the world, including performances at the prestigious Just For Laughs in Montreal and tour support for Joe Lycett, Phil Wang and Milton Jones.
