About Noisy Badger

I'm Hajar (yes, it rhymes with 'badger') and I started Noisy Badger off the back of a 15-year portfolio career that's covered journalism, presenting, copywriting, tech and sustainability content, podcasting and, err, singing (yes, professionally).
​
Noisy Badger was originally a catch-all company for all my corporate and creative work, but it took launching a comedy night to see that it's a brand and a business that can do so much more.
​
Over nearly three years running Comedy Magnifique at Cellar Magnifique in Woking, we've built a beautiful joy-filled community of comedy lovers with a night that attracts some of the UK's top comic talent. It's been an enriching learning experience, but now Noisy Badger's taking all that knowledge and expanding to new venues across Surrey, London and the South-East.
​
The mission? To do comedy differently. Comedy's a strange world that's full of written and unwritten rules, but I'm using my experience from live music events and the corporate world - plus some good old over-the-top Iranian hospitality - to break some of those rules and provide unique comedy experiences for both comics and audience members alike.

See for yourself!
