Kitty Messalina is a comedic triple threat - a queer woman of colour. Her unique perspectives on prejudice, promiscuity and polyamory quickly earned her a nomination as a Finalist for the NCF New Act of the Year Award 2019. Despite being a relative newcomer to the circuit, she has performed with greats such as Rosie Jones and as tour support for Shaparak (Shappi) Khorsandi. Kitty is currently working on her debut solo show, "Is This Thing Turned On?" where she ponders identity politics, problematic crushes and Alexander Hamilton; her WIP performance of this was a sold out success at the Nottingham Comedy Festival 2021.
