Charlotte was raised in Nottinghamshire, but in 2018 swapped sexy fox Robin Hood for less-sexy bees and moved to Manchester. It was in the back alleys of the Northern Quarter she discovered the vibrant world of stand-up and became a total nerd for all things comedy. 

She performed her musical comedy at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2019 as part of the University of Salford compilation show SalFUNNI and returned in August as the Producer of SalFUNNI 2022.

During the lockdowns, Charlotte made Curio Comedy: Salford Showcase, a comedy show supported by the New Adelphi Theatre. Curio Comedy was longlisted in the Funny Women Awards 2021 and ended up being featured in Heat Magazine as one of their Funny Women Content Creator Award's Top Picks. She also had her third-year sketch show Edit Profile streamed by Funny Women and broadcast by BBC Upload on BBC Manchester. 

In 2021, Charlotte reached the Chortle Student Comedy Award Finals and was selected as one of the New Adelphi Theatre's Supported Artists, granting her a scholarship to focus on her comedy performance and writing development, which led her to develop her first stand-up show, Good Girl Gone Rad.

Audience Feedback:

"It was the best night ever, it was so good - just such a good vibe."

"This is my first comedy night and so to go to Slumber Party as the first one, I just had the most amazing time!"

"The entire concept is amazing, it really does stand out amongst other comedy nights just cause the vibe and the energy is so heightened and fun."

"I can't wait for the next one - just nostalgia and good vibes and fun sleepover vibes!"

"I don't really do comedy nights very often, mainly cause they're just the same thing, but that was incredible...it was so, so different. And Charlotte has such a f***ing good vibe for a host!"

Charlotte's cult show in Manchester City Centre, a monthly alternative comedy night running since September 2023 that brings fun, feminist, feral energy with a nostalgic noughties twist to the delight of audiences and comics alike!

The noughties called...and it said you're invited to the coolest Slumber Party in Manchester, hosted by "viscerally relatable" and chronically online comedian, Charlotte Cropper! 
 
Grab your comfies and get ready to stay up late because we've got:
- The hottest alternative comedy acts on the circuit (yes, so hot you will be doodling their names in your diary until next month's show)
- A deep-dive into all the classic sleepover films that have definitely aged well...
- Slumber party games for our comics and you, the audience, to play!

Oh...teehee.

 

Silly us, we totally forgot to mention - there's also a 3am sleep paralysis demon, a build-a-bear school mascot that's high-key a walking red-flag and free sweets for every audience member - cute! 😈🍿

Testimonials:
"We were delighted to welcome Charlotte Cropper back to St. Edmund’s Cofe Primary and Nursery School to deliver her engaging and inspiring comedy workshops. As a former pupil, Charlotte’s connection to our school community was evident in her warm and welcoming approach. Her workshops were a huge success, captivating our Year 3 and 6 pupils with a range of fun and creative activities. Our pupils were particularly impressed by Charlotte’s ability to create a relaxed and supportive atmosphere, encouraging them to step outside their comfort zones and embrace their comedic talents.  

 

The feedback from both our pupils and staff has been overwhelmingly positive. Our pupils felt empowered and confident, thanks to Charlotte’s guidance and  encouragement. Our staff were equally impressed with Charlotte’s professionalism and dedication. Her ability to engage all children, regardless of their ability or confidence level, was truly remarkable. The workshops provided a valuable opportunity for our pupils to develop their communication skills,  teamwork abilities, and self-esteem. We would highly recommend Charlotte Cropper to any school looking to enhance their creative curriculum and inspire their pupils. Her workshops are a fantastic way to boost children’s confidence,  creativity, and overall well-being.

Good Girl Gone Rad

CREDITS: CHICHESTER FRINGE 23 - NOTTINGHAM COMEDY FESTIVAL 23 - WOMEN IN COMEDY FESTIVAL 23 - LEICESTER COMEDY FESTIVAL 24

Join New Adelphi Theatre Supported Artist and Comedian Charlotte Cropper as she presents “Good Girl Gone Rad”, a stand-up show about reinventing and reverting yourself (and hamsters).

“Cropper is going places, make no mistake about that” – Notts Comedy Review

 

“thoroughly engaging presence” – Chortle

“viscerally relatable” – The Meteor

Charlotte Cropper was a buck-toothed good girl who didn’t know the meaning of “no” – a bully’s wet dream. When her braces came off, she left her small-town roots for the glittering heights of Salford and reinvented her people-pleasing personality into a “Good Girl Gone BAD”. And that plan – did not end well.

With a warm and mischievous delivery, Charlotte indulges us with her cautionary tales of wit, whimsy, and why embodying the “terrible twos” is the most rad thing you can do.

If you had to grow up a bit too fast, felt pressure to be “well-behaved” or still start to cry when someone tells you off even though you’re not 3 years old anymore – this is the show for you.

Charlotte is a Supported Artist at the New Adelphi Theatre, creator and host of CroppaChoppa’s Slumber Party, a 2021 Chortle Student Comedy Award Finalist, and an alumnus of the University of Salford. Recipient of The Dean’s Award at the Create Awards 2021, Charlotte performed as part of the University's Edinburgh Stand-Up Showcase SalFUNNI in 2019 and returned in August 2022 as the Producer of the 2022 cohort.

During the pandemic, Charlotte collaborated online with the New Adelphi Theatre to create Curio Comedy: Salford Showcase. The show was longlisted in the Funny Women Awards 2021 and featured in Heat Magazine as one of the Funny Women Content Creator Award’s Top Picks. Her third-year Practical Research Project (PRP) sketch show Edit Profile was streamed by Funny Women and broadcast by BBC Upload on BBC Manchester. Charlotte was selected as a Supported Artist of the New Adelphi Theatre in 2021, the same year she competed in the Chortle Student Comedy Award finals.
