“What do you call a vicar who has you crying with laugher? Maggy Whitehouse”— West magazine.
Let’s face it, nobody really likes God. Even the fundamentalists are **** scared at what He’ll do to them if they get it wrong.
People are fond of saying that ‘God’ is ‘Dog’ written backwards, which means either 1/ They think God should be kept in a kennel or 2/ the English language is the only one that counts.
Enter the God Whisperer... Holy mischief-maker Reverend Maggy Whitehouse, the heretic’s heretic, expert on Biblical abominations and a vicar who only uses those terrifying words, “have you found Jesus?” to get herself a seat on an overbooked train.
Maggy Whitehouse is a genuine Independent Catholic Priest, author on Bible metaphysics and BBC faith presenter. No, she’s not fluffy and no, she won’t be trying to convert you. Think Father Ted with a slightly better cardigan.
Maggy talks about God, to God, envies atheists, supports the spiritual and makes the whole darned ridiculousness of religion topical, relevant and very, very funny.
Finalist: Bath Comedy Festival New Act Award 2016. Finalist: Funny Women 2015. Runner-up: Stand Up For Cider, 2015.
“One of the most unique, distinctive and brilliantly subversive acts I’ve seen for years” — Chris Brooker, Bigmouth Comedy.
“There is a great need for a performer like Maggy Whitehouse – an outspoken, slightly sweary female Catholic priest (don’t worry, she explains how this is possible) – it makes a refreshing counterbalance to the Robin Ince/Brian Cox atheist axis that has been in unchallenged ascendancy”—TV Bomb.
