Aussie comedian Jess Fuchs (@JessFuchs) returns home to Sydney for one night only!
In her brand-new hour, God Forbid I’m a Difficult Woman, Jess finds herself in a bit of a pickle. She doesn’t believe in marriage… but her best friend has asked her to be the celebrant at her wedding.
This is Jess’s rehearsal. She needs to practise smiling through the bile, suppressing her scepticism and, above all, resist the urge to say “yuck” when her friends say “I do”.
In this bold, brutally honest and hilariously relatable new hour, Jess unpacks her complicated relationship with commitment, overshares her deepest fears about romance and questions how, in good conscience, she can help her best friend get married.
An award-nominated comedian with over 100,000 followers across social media, Jess made her Edinburgh Festival Fringe debut in 2026 with Feral, earning a Next Up ‘Biggest Award in Comedy’ nomination.
Jess’s debut hour, Feral, received widespread critical acclaim, earning four- and five-star reviews across the board. Praised for delivering “an hour of uproariously shameless comedy” (The Skinny), Jess was hailed as “comedy gold” (The Herald), with Chortle applauding her “gags worthy of Joan Rivers”.
Jess has also appeared on BBC Radio 4’s One Person Found This Helpful, hosted by Frank Skinner, and has opened for Gianmarco Soresi, Fortune Feimster and Morgan Jay. She has performed at comedy festivals and clubs across Australia, the UK and the US.
