JENNA SUFFERN
Jenna Suffern is a comedian, producer and writer. She has an engaging presence and a flair for performance, bringing an off the cuff and kooky approach to comedy.
Jenna is a known face in the Sydney comedy scene, and has a passion for producing events for the queer community.
Among her many other spinning plates, she is the co-founder and host of Two Queers Walk Into A Bar comedy night, the producer of Queer Table Reads, producer for the theatre collective The General Public, and is a regular contributor to Pedestrian.TV.
Despite all of this, her biggest achievement was once being introduced as a "prominent Sydney lesbian".
As a freelance producer, comedian and writer, Jenna is always keen to chat future projects! Send her an email or slide into her DM's (respectively).

HOT MESS THEATRE PLAY 2021
PRODUCER/WRITER/ACTOR
A comedy set inside a public bathroom? You gotta be sh*tting me...
Over the course of a drunken night out, old friends and strangers come together in the most sacred of spaces – the public bathroom – to bare all (both figuratively and literally). HOT MESS cracks open the cubicle door to reveal stories of late-night shenanigans and surprising solidarity in the fleeting friendships that are forged behind usually closed doors.

"Jenna Suffern is a particularly bright spark as an anxious lesbian fresh off a breakup" Sydney Morning Herald
