More About

Alexandra Haddow was the first in her family to go to university and pursue a career in the arts. She now skewers the juxtaposition of her working-class upbringing and her current life as a freelance writer and comedian.

Alexandra’s hotly anticipated debut show, Not My Finest Hour, sold out its entirety at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It received critical acclaim after being nominated for Best Debut Show at the 2023 Leicester Comedy Festival. She has a growing social media following of over 60,000, with her tweets regularly going viral. In 2023 she won the inaugural West End Comedy Club Working Class Bursary and was shortlisted for the 99 Club Female and Non-Binary Comedians Programme.

Her radio credits include BBC Radio 4’s Comedy Club with Arthur Smith, The Moon Under Water Podcast with John Robins, and the Fit and Proper Podcast with Rhys James and Lloyd Griffith. She has also featured alongside former footballer Peter Crouch on the Discovery+ series Save Our Beautiful Game.

As a writer, Alexandra has contributed to Have I Got News For You, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Time Out, and The Metro and The Independent magazines.
