“Each joke and lyric feels thoughtfully crafted, inclusive, and purposefully provocative”

Jordan Gray delivers a magnetic and fearless performance in her latest show, Is That a C*ck in Your Pocket, or Are You Just Here to Kill Me?, a chaotic, camp, and compelling hour that blends stand-up, music, and subversive cabaret.

The BAFTA-winning comedian commands the stage with confidence, humour, and a punk-rock irreverence that’s both disarming and deeply engaging. Armed with a guitar, a keyboard, and the surprise presence of her wife, Gray crafts a bold, unapologetically queer narrative that’s as heartfelt as it is hilarious.

From the moment she strides on stage, Jordan seizes the room, her wit razor-sharp, her physicality dynamic, and her transgender identity proudly front and centre. What could be a punchline for others becomes her powerful, self-authored opening act.

Her original songs, clever, catchy, and often wickedly funny, are woven seamlessly between monologues and improvisation, allowing the audience to connect with her personal journey. Each joke and lyric feels thoughtfully crafted, inclusive, and purposefully provocative.

Jordan Gray is a true polymath: comedian, musician, storyteller, and provocateur. In a cultural moment still negotiating inclusion and visibility, she doesn’t just ask for space, she takes it, owns it, and fills it with joy, defiance, and glitter.

If there’s one complaint, it’s that the show could be a little longer – the audience clearly didn’t want it to end.
