Motormouse Comedy - Funbee Travel

What's it all about

Motormouse Comedy is a brand new section to Motormouse Productions. Returning to her comedic roots, founder of the company Karen Bartholomew is writing and performing some new comedy sketches, shorts and monos. Why? Why not? After Covid killed off the last Motormouse tour, I decided to use this time to create some comedy. I'd been wanting to return to this genre for a long time and it's great to be back doing it.

Actors include: Clive Ward, Karren Winchester and Karen Bartholomew
Written by: Karen Bartholomew
Filmed & edited by: Derek Boyes

The aim is to release monthly content across social media and grow our audience.
We'll have new faces joining us for our upcoming sketches.

What do Motormouse want to do - GET IT ON TV. I don't care who, just someone commission Motormouse Comedy before we're dead. Any TV producers watching....please get in touch. Motormouse write relevant, topical comedy that pokes fun at our hyprocrisies and other oddities in life. That's it. Hope you enjoy it!

Covid may have shut our theatres down, but not our creativity. Sketches viewable across social media channels and in our VIDEO section at www.motormouseproductions.co.uk

Clive Ward
Clive can currently be seen falling from a train in the Taylor's Coffee Bags commercial. Not the first time he's fallen on his arse. He played the eccentric lover in the tour of Karen Bartholomew's God's Waiting Room in 2017. Perfect casting according to his wife. Previous incarnations include Charles Pooter in Diary of a Nobody, Lord Goring in An Ideal Husband, Harm Groespecker in Theatre of Sex, and we mustn't forget, however much we may want to, his iconic performance as the BBC newsreader in an episode of Basil Brush. He lives with his seven children, labradoodle, cat and tortoise in south east London.

Karren Winchester
Karren has two ‘R’s in her name due to a cock up many years ago when joining Equity or Spotlight – the detail is immaterial. She was about to ‘ave a moan when she thought ‘Nah – if it’s good enough for Darrens it’s good enough for me’. She thought it would be a topic of conversation at auditions maybe or make her stand out from the crowd. Nah again. Her Drama school mates just decided it was pretentious and took the piss spelling it with 17 ‘R’s. But wot’s in a name. Her granddaughters call her Nanny Pig or Pep Guardiola and that means more than anyfink in the world. She’s very happy to be Keefing with the unpretentiously named Karen Bartholomew and er mate Clive. They had said despite being excellent in ‘God’s Waiting Room’ they would never bloody do it again but it’s like having a second child – you forget the agony till the first contractions start. Karren is lovin doin a bit of larfy stuff coz she usually does lots of serious stuff mainly involving murders, runaway kids, hysterical drunken crying and court rooms etc. Oh – and she does other acting too.

Karen Bartholomew
Karen with just the one 'R', not like the attention-seeker above. Bit of this, bit of that. 'Just below average' at school and usually served at room temperature (pending hormonal imbalance). Many years of still trying... to understand the question of life, death and what exactly is the point of 'Pointless.' Sketch comedy, bit of stand-and theatre, film trajectory. Last seen on a tennis court. Karen rides a Ninja motorbike quite well and her favourite cooking is done in a ping.

Derek Boyes
Derek Boyes is a childish, irresponsible 48 year-old filmmaker who graduated in directing from the NFTS. One day he still hopes to conquer Hollywood, but in the meantime he’s happy to collaborating with fellow creatives - www.digi-del.co.uk
