MICF: Jude Perl – Part of This Complete Breakfast

Jude Perl recently won a Green Room Award for her 2015 MICF show, Is It Me? I wouldn’t be surprised if this excellent show puts her in the running for more awards.

Jude Perl

Perl is one of those comedians whose material straddles the line between hilarious and uncomfortable. She picks a spot in your conscience – like those vaguely racist thoughts we all sometimes have – and pokes at it until you start questioning yourself. Her songs, such as the teen love ballad that starts out predictably but soon takes a turn for the decidedly nihilistic, are inventive and surprising.

See this woman in an intimate venue while you still can – she’s going to be big.
