Jayde Adams: Serious Black Jumper (2020)
Jayde Adams: Serious Black Jumper (2020)
Overview
Jayde Adams: Serious Black Jumper is a 62-minute stand-up special in which the Bristol comedian trades sequins for, yes, a serious black jumper and takes on the question of what feminism actually looks like in daily life. The title itself is a joke about progressive signaling, but the material underneath is sincere. Adams centers the hour on body image, societal expectations for women, and what a working-class woman gets to call a role model. That focus on feminist politics earns the Leans Progressive label. A moderating thread runs through it: her warmest material draws on a traditional family she clearly loves, which keeps the special from reading as purely ideological.
