Caroline’s versatile career spans musical theatre, stand-up comedy, cabaret, old-time music hall, opera and, of course, jazz. She has starred in productions at the Young Vic, Riverside Studios, Wilton’s Music Hall, Almeida Festival and Hackney Empire, and has charmed audiences in numerous TV shows for ITV, BBC, Channel 4 and Sky.

Taking her talents on the road, she has toured musical productions in Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle and the Edinburgh Festival, and frequently showcases her jazz-infused comedy impressions in the sunny states of Vegas and Florida. It’s no surprise she has made a habit of returning to good old Blighty with bagfuls of prestigious awards, including The Comedy Award 2020 at the Reel Awards Tribute Convention in Vegas, the Gold Agent Award 2023 for her blues performance as Queen Camilla, and Funniest Female Award (2019/22/23) at The Sunburst Tribute Convention in Orlando.

An expert entertainer, accomplished artist and true lover of jazz, Caroline has lovingly crafted her jazz voice—and brings her distinctive zest to audiences at iconic venues across the capital, including The Pheasantry, The CAA, Spice of Life and Crazy Coqs, winning Best Up Tempo Song at the Harold Awards and lighting up the stage alongside many of London’s finest jazz musicians.

In a beautifully curated journey into Caroline’s world of storytelling through the sounds of jazz, tonight she will perform some of her favourite songs by a wealth of great composers.
