I had a chance to check out the Saturday night showing of Jess' Fringe show 'Doing Good', and I was shocked!!!! She really does answer all those burning questions like where do lesbians with big hands fit into the scheme of things? And, why does a successful lawyer quit her job to become a comedian???
The answer is clear, Jess is a natural born entertainer, a gene she may have inherited from her grandmother. She walked on stage dressed to kill, like I've never seen her before. A mix of stand up and storytelling, Jess' sincerity and honest hilarity shine through. This is not the kind of show you go and see if you like to see people be awkward onstage, this is not the cringe fest. Her comedic skill can bring us from war crimes to cancer and still have us splitting our sides without feeling guilty.
With people like Jess on the job, whether it be law or comedy, we can rest assured that we're all doing good.
My favourite line from the show was "Comedy is very honest. It's completely different from saying "I can't really comment until the results of the toxicology tests.""
