*Award winning comedy from Pippa Hinchley,
her female friends and the odd bloke*Nominated for best web comedy show ITV Fest Awards in LA*Nominated for Best Actress In A Web Comedy, StayTuned/ITVFest LA** Live!Sex!Girls! (LSG) is an all-female sketch show originally created by Pippa in Los Angeles, as a live show for the LA Comedy Festival. With a co-cast of Funny Brit Chix, the show's sketches were surreal, saucy, satirical and sometimes just silly, often commenting on life as an 'immigrant' and transplant performer in LaLa. It then became a web series - filming a sketch whenever she had $5.50 to spare until 13 webisodes were shot to become a series.
Pippa is an award winning screenwriter and actor whose feature script UP YOURS, BRIDGET JONES was a finalist in the 2018 National Lampoon Search For Comedy Gold reboot competition and has placed in many other contests including The Page, Finishline & Screencraft. Her comedy credits include award winning sketch show Smack The Pony and No Limit, as well as Edinburgh show The Alans Have Landed and Destination Elevation, several one act plays and stand-up in LA. As an actor she has played leading roles in comedies written and directed by Sir Alan Ayckbourn and Terry Johnson and performed in the West End as well as many regional theatres.

In the USA, LSG was "an almost all female sketch show with a twist of Brit" - now I'd like to create further hilarity on home turf - probably "with a twist of Brexit" if we don't kill ourselves 1st. Scripts are abundant but for this I'll need collaborators, crew, some wickedly witty women to play with and the occasional, totally grautuitous, semi-naked male. And possibly a dog.
Many of the characters and sketches are runners - some taking more the shape of short form films & mini series, like the award winning
"KILLING BOYFRIENDS - AN EPIC TRILOGY" which tells the tragic tale of Pan - a klutz who will KEEP accidentally killing her best mate's men. Could Pan return once more - or could her best friend finally get revenge?
GALE FORCE - busty, all-action weather woman, Gale, whose career you can marvel at over 6 sketches as she makes a meteoric rise from 'large fronts' as a weather woman to 'rear ending' as traffic news reporter. Gale makes political reporter and, finally, war correspondent, armed only with an orgy of utterly inappropriate sexual innuendo. Can Gale top even this, make news anchor or front her own late-night chat show?
CHARACTERS new material for existing characters and brand new ones are ready to shoot, including

SHOOTING NOW as short/ 3x5' web and a proof of concept as I have interest from various companies and need to develop as half hour series (maybe a feature length)
Im also performing bits of it live - THE VAULTS last month - as I write the fulkl length play and radio/audio versions.
#MENTAL needs some expert editing and sound design as it has various effects that show Lucy's alternative view/hearing/perception of reality. At the moment Pippa is struggling and becoming more #mental than previosuly believed, attempting to shoot, perform, edit and produce on her tod. Please help.
