The Nottingham born comedian uses her show to discuss her time working as a nanny and reflects on her own early life and how it may have influenced her sexuality. She was named Best Newcomer at the 2018 Edinburgh Comedy Awards.

Keyworth did a short spot at the Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala event which was broadcast on TV last week. She’s currently performing in Melbourne and critics have described her work as having an “activist undercurrent”.

Check out the clip of her performing.
