RACHEL PARRIS The Mash Report correspondent loves to pretend Is there anything Rachel Parris can’t do? She’s hosted a Game of Thrones fanshow on Sky Atlantic, was a founding member of improv collective Austentatious, played Roy’s needy girlfriend in a classic episode of The IT Crowd, and has received plenty plaudits for her job as a correspondent on The Mash Report. In particular, her ‘How NOT to sexually harass someone’ item on the show back in January received lots of
traction. And now she takes to the nation’s roads again for her latest touring show, It’s Fun to Pretend. Promising stand-up, sketch, song and satire, Parris will be delivering her own comedic take on the mad stuff that’s going on in the world today as well as delving into more personal material.
