Felicity Ward
Felicity is a London-based comedian, actor, writer and knucklehead.
Born in a small town just a podcast north of Sydney, Australia, she started stand up in 2008…three years before being born. she is referring to herself in the third person and it’s making her very uncomfortable.
Before she started stand up, she wrote and starred in the Ronnie Johns Half Hour sketch show, then had a bit of a nervo and moved to straight stand up.
She’s spoken at length in her stand up and personally about her struggles with mental health including presenting a documentary Felicity’s Mental Mission and her Netflix special for Live at the BBC series: What If There Is No Toilet?
