Hatty Preston - Toxic Waste - 2025 Taping

‘Toxic Waste’ is written and performed by comedian, Hatty Preston. It is the result of 7 years as a comedian and 37 years as a human. ‘Toxic Waste’ did 7 dates of a ‘Tourette’ round the country culminating in this taping. London-born, Chicago-built comedian Hatty Preston is fast making a name for herself on both sides of the pond after opening for comics such as Chris DiStefano, Theo Von, Jessica Kirson and Jack Whitehall. She has been seen on TV shows including ‘The Royals’, ‘Cuckoo’ and ‘Call The Midwife’ but this show centres on her biggest adventure to date: trying for a baby by herself. ‘Toxic Waste’ is the show her mother just feels “could be slightly more ladylike”, her ex-agent didn’t care about because it wasn’t at the edinburgh fringe, and her ex has spent the last 8 years dreading might happen. Like Adele. With fewer key changes.
