They’ve Got talent!
Cliff and Penny have as much fun performing as the audience has watching their show. Their Jazz Up Comedy style is relatable and natural as well as creative. They will take any theme and put together an entertaining program customized to the audience and the occasion. Challenging and difficult as that is at times, this dynamic duo is energized by that very challenge. Celebrations, honorariums, holidays, corporate events, rainy days, weekends, weekdays… they can jazz up any day with comedy and music. They have talent and they’re not afraid to use it to express themselves. Yet they are never confrontational. Their shows are fresh and lively but they have a point, actually many points to which you can relate.
Cliff is a dynamic jazz pianist and Penny is a clean killer comedian. All together, they have performed separately and as a duo for over 40 years. In Jazz Up Comedy, they make beautiful music and intelligent comedy that makes you think and yet laugh. Entertaining, original, topical, fun… these are the words that describe Jazz Up Comedy shows. You’ll come away from their show humming some of the songs and quoting some of the lines. They will get to you in the most delightful way.
As a jazz composer and arranger, Cliff writes songs and creates arrangements to suit Penny’s original material. They work together seamlessly and easily so that you would never guess how much time and energy goes into their productions. However, to Cliff and Penny, Jazz Up Comedy isn’t work; it’s pure fun. This comes across in these sample videos. Take a look, a listen, and enjoy!
