Rosie Jones’s Disability Comedy Extravaganza returns to UKTV Play

Rosie Jones’s Disability Comedy Extravaganza will be back for a second series as a UKTV Play exclusive.

Host Rosie Jones will welcome a plethora of up-and-coming comedic talent, alongside some familiar faces to a live audience of producers and commissioners from across the industry, delivering on UKTV’s continuing commitment to provide a platform for diverse and underrepresented talent.

Rosie Jones:

“We’re back and rightfully so! I am so excited to be back on stage, joined by some incredibly talented comedians. It is vital to continue to grow visibility and representation of disability on screen and I am thrilled to be hosting this showcase again!”

Rosie Jones’s Disability Comedy Extravaganza follows the success of the first UKTV Disabled Comedian’s Showcase which took place in October 2021 for an industry audience.

The previous series shined a light on some incredible talent including headliners Josh Pugh, Bethany Black, Jake Lambert, Don Biswas, Sarah Mills, Sam Serrano, Lara Ricote, Dan Tiernan, William Thompson and Will Robbins.

The hilarious, live comedy showcase is produced by Phil McIntyre Television and will air on UKTV Play in August 2023.
