Rachel Galvo

Rachel Galvo is an Irish comedian based in London who has burst onto the live scene, making waves on both sides of the Irish Sea. As a 2023 graduate of Mountview’s prestigious Musical Theatre program, Galvo combined her interest in feminism and comedy—explored in her thesis on Women and Feminism in Comedy—with her wit and natural stage presence, to launch her own stand-up career.

With almost no experience in performing comedy, her debut solo show, The Shite Feminist, landed with a bang, selling out venues across the UK and Ireland, including Dublin’s 1200 seat Olympia theatre. The show earned Rachel critical praise as well as a fiercely loyal fanbase across her social media.

Following a breakout run at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe, Rachel triumphantly returned in 2025 to critical acclaim.

‘Galvo truly is one to watch, and if this is what she can do so early in her career, ‘shite’ is the last word I’d use to describe her feminism…or her comedy’ The Edinburgh Fringe Review

‘Her presence is electric and she’s utterly in command of the room and her exuberant material. The show is an absolute riot, especially so for the women it’s so squarely aimed at’ Chortle
