Grace Jarvis

Just Because I'm Crying Doesn't Mean I'm Not Having a Nice Time

  • Australia

A new hour of stand-up comedy from the Antipodes' most verbose and melancholy good time gal. Grace Jarvis is excited to regale audiences with her tales of living overseas, falling in love, working in a sex shop and getting into notable scrapes on public transport, before she inevitably sits still for long enough that a mysterious moss begins to grow and cover her body like a boulder.

Returning to Melbourne from her obligatory move to the UK, Grace remains "a refreshing and unique perspective in amongst an ocean of generic stand-up" (Art Murmurs, NZ).

As seen on Comedy Up Late and Upfront. Tour support for Josh Thomas. 

'One of the smartest and funniest comedians coming up in Australia right now.' Zachary Ruane (Aunty Donna)

'I saw Grace Jarvis’ show in Melbourne and I LOVED it and I LOVE her.' Rosie Jones (Taskmaster)

'Razor-sharp, vulnerable, honed comedy... she is a star!"'Tim Batt (The Worst Idea of All Time)

'Outwardly winsome and internally complex, Jarvis is a delight.' The Scotsman

'It’s rare to see a comic land as many punchlines as effortlessly as Grace Jarvis.' The Age

'Her jokes are carefully crafted and deceivingly dark.' The Wee Review (UK)

'Grace Jarvis is a bright, giggly, charming comedian… the audience is laughing like drains.' Squirrel Comedy 

Suitable for audiences 15+

Strong sexual references

Language – occasional coarse language
