A message from Barbara about fun & laughter: “Laughter is the noise we make when we make connections. It’s like a two live wires meeting. Me and Vera and were talking about laughter and why we make the noise – we came up with idea that it’s when two opposing forces or ideas meet head on and the energy of the clash between them makes a thunderclap of laughter. Is this a new idea?” #BarbarasBigBangTheory.

Laughter is loud and attracts attention, it’s a signifier to tell others there is something good and important going on – Fun! Fun increases the production of positive hormones, namely oxytocin, serotonin and dopamine. These are neurotransmitters that improve your brain activity. So, Fun! is guaranteed to make you feel better.

Having supported comedians Johnny Vegas and Peter Kay on tour in the past, Barbara Nice is a circuit headline act in her own right, as well as being one of the most experienced comperes in the country.

In a smash hit audition for ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent in 2019, Barbara wowed the judges with her humour and eccentric style, which saw her reach the semi-finals.
