The act
Real life stories about growing up, falling down and finding a way back are the foundation of Jess Kennedy's stand up. Her material aims for laughter while also leaving the room with something to reflect on. Jess can combine comedy with hosting, or focus on one role, depending on what your wedding needs. MC bookings generally span four to six hours, while a comedy performance usually sits between one and two hours. Watch her here, then decide whether that mixture of humour and thoughtful storytelling belongs in your Melbourne celebration.

Good to know
What to expect
How long she's on her feet depends on the job. MC work generally runs four to six hours, which covers a wedding or a function from the first announcement through to the last. Comedy sets sit at one to two hours. Anything else lands where it lands, and she'll tell you honestly what a given event needs. Jess Kennedy works weddings, corporate functions, festivals, parties and virtual events, and the stand-up draws on real life: growing up, coming unstuck and working the way back. It gets laughs. It also tends to leave people thinking about the people around them.
Performance options
Hosting, comedy, or both on the same day, put together to match what your event is asking for. MC bookings usually run four to six hours across a wedding or function. Comedy sets are one to two. Festivals, parties and virtual events all sit inside what she covers, and the mix is worked out with you rather than picked off a list. So the useful thing to send through is your run sheet, or a rough shape of the day if you don't have one yet, and she'll say what suits.
