ABOUT THE ARTISTS:

Lee Martin for Gag Reflex

Ada Campe is the alter-ego and mischievous creation of theatrical academic Naomi Paxton, and Ada is true variety at its best. From juggling to card tricks to mind reading, Magic Circle member Ada Campe is a one-woman celebration of a bygone golden era yet still hugely relevant today.

In 2018 she won the prestigious New Act of the Year Show (NATYS), and the Leicester Square Theatre Old Comedian of the Year competition. In 2019 Ada Campe won the The Stand Comedy Club’s Good Egg Award, was shortlisted for the Chortle Awards in the Variety category and the Funny Women awards in the Best Show category.
