Jordan Barr

LOL at First Sight

On Tour!

Jordan Barr is a stand-up comedian, actor, musical theatre performer, writer, and host of Weekend Breakfast on triple j.

Jordan’s comedy is personal, relatable, and unapologetically queer. She has a unique ability to connect to generations of audiences with her encyclopedic knowledge of the cultural zeitgeist. I mean, who else can explain the nuances of TLCs Sister Wives, while explaining which planets in the solar system represent the children from The Sound of Music.

After graduating with a Musical Theatre degree at the Victoria College of Arts, Jordan started slinking her way through the Melbourne stand-up scene and has performed on various theatre, musical, sketch and comedy shows. She has performed numerous solo shows at comedy festivals around Australia, appeared on the prestigious Melbourne Comedy Festival Upfront gala, and supported the likes of Hannah Gadsby and Catherine Cohen.

Jordan is also an in-demand TV and development writer, working on shows such as Spicks and Specks and Question Everything.
