Sara Pascoe on Supporting Women Through Comedy
“Every single penny raised from ticket sales will go directly to Sophie Hayes Foundation’s life-changing work, supporting women to reclaim their independence, confidence and futures,” said Sara Pascoe, highlighting the significance of her upcoming performance at a fundraiser for the Sophie Hayes Foundation on April 11, 2026.
Pascoe, who is also set to appear on The Jonathan Ross Show on March 7, 2026, is known for her candid humor and relatable anecdotes. Her new show, titled ‘I Am Strange Gloop’, explores themes of motherhood and personal experiences, including her journey through IVF as a mother of two.
During her recent performances, Pascoe has joked, “They’ve put a nice dress on me tonight but I’m usually covered in yoghurt and baked beans,” illustrating her ability to connect with audiences through humor about everyday life.
The fundraiser aims to support women survivors of modern slavery, with tickets priced at £22. This initiative underscores Pascoe’s commitment to using her platform for social good, a theme she often weaves into her comedy.
In addition to the fundraiser, Pascoe will headline the Battersea Park Comedy Festival in June 2026 and is one of the star attractions at the Latitude Festival in July 2026. Her participation in these events reflects her growing prominence in the comedy scene.
Pascoe’s humor often challenges societal norms, as she remarked, “one person’s trash is another person’s treasure and that five-star hotels, restaurants and entertainment are for cowards.” This perspective resonates with many of her fans, who appreciate her authenticity.
As she continues to tour with her new show, Pascoe’s performances are expected to include more anecdotes about motherhood and her experiences during lockdown, providing a relatable narrative for her audience.
With her upcoming appearances, including a new TV project called ‘Zwro Stars’, Sara Pascoe remains a significant figure in contemporary comedy, blending humor with important social messages.
Kurt Russell, a notable figure in the entertainment industry, praised Pascoe, stating, “It is amazing. She is amazing. She is one of the great people on the planet,” reflecting the high regard in which she is held by her peers.
As the date of the fundraiser approaches, anticipation builds around Pascoe’s performance and the impact it will have on supporting women in need.
