Melodrama

‘One to watch’ (The Scotsman) and ‘Obviously multi-talented’ (Ed Fringe Review), Aber’s own Mel Owen returns to Aberystwyth Comedy Festival with her new show, Melodrama.

Mel loves being 30, but she’s not sure she’s doing it quite right. From failed gender reveal parties, to missteps as a God Mother, it’s all been very Melodramatic (Mel-O-dramatic…like Mel Owen…never mind).

Mel has toured as support for comedy stars Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Elis James, Daliso Chaponda, Colin Hoult and Emmanuel Sonubi, as well as having perfored sell-out shows in Machynlleth, Aberystwyth, Bristol and Edinburgh. In May 2024 Mel performed at the Netflix Is A Joke comedy festival in Los Angeles.

Mel is a co-presenter of Wales’ premier politics podcast, For Wales See Wales. She also presents on BBC Radio Cymru, BBC Radio Wales and is a familiar voice on BBC Radio 4 and Radio 2. She has writing credits on Channel 4, BBC Three, Radio Wales and recently Netflix.
