It's Not Funny, It's Private | Sydney Comedy Festival

"A lone lesbian having a mental breakdown in real time is a recipe for comedy in this painfully relatable solo show " ★★★★ Time Out Sydney

Join Jenna as they bunker down in their living room to process the triple threat of a lifetime - getting dumped, being made redundant, and starting a career in standup comedy.

It’s Not Funny, It’s Private is a self-deprecating love letter to Jenna’s past relationships, her 18 year old cat Mam, and the Real Housewives franchise. 

This loveable Lexapro lesbian is making their private life public. Get ready to feel seen (even if you don’t want to admit it).

Nominated for Best Comedy at Sydney Fringe 2023, Jenna Suffern is a Sydney-based comedian, producer and writer. She has an engaging presence and a flair for performance, bringing an off-the-cuff and kooky approach to comedy. She's a known face in the Sydney comedy scene, a familiar voice for Pedestrian.TV and VICE AU, and produces and hosts the queer comedy room, ‘Two Queers Walk Into A Bar’. 

Despite all of this, their biggest achievement was once being called a “prominent Sydney lesbian”.
