Hastings Fringe Comedy Festival 2022: The Norman Award Newcomer of the Year: The Crypt, Hastings, 2022
Sofa So Funny! Upstairs at The Flying Horse, Wilson Street, London, 2022 

Extremely natural, confident on stage and exceptionally funny, North-West of England comedian Elaine Fellows was the first act to appear at The Norman Award Newcomer of the Year competition that I watched at the Hastings Fringe Comedy Festival in June 2022. I also saw her at the comic showcase Sofa So Funny! in July 2022.  Her material comparing North to South was very sharp and the audiences laughed a lot during her five-minute sets.  She deservedly was runner-up in the Hastings competition and is one to watch.
