3 Minutes Inside My Brain, Buxton Fringe

Coming to Buxton Fringe in July… 3 Minutes Inside My Brain is a whistle-stop tour through the fascinating, exuberant and surprising world of Jennifer Jordan’s brain.

In this comedy science adventure Jennifer shrinks her audience down, inserts them into her brain and takes them on a whirlwind journey through her processes and pitfalls. The show explores neurodiversity, anxiety and depression through a fun and interactive narrative, brought to life with very real facts, very cute puppets, and a very scientific ball pit.

3 Minutes Inside My Brain was written and devised by Jennifer Jordan, in collaboration with Audra Goffeney. Jennifer Jordan is a multidisciplinary performance artist, with a background in improvised theatre and comedy. Audra Goffeney is designer, performer and ceramic artist specialising in collaborative storytelling.

Statement from Jennifer: “It’s an honest portrayal of my own anxiety and also an invitation for audiences to feel less alone in their own experiences. I adore creating a real relationship with the people who come to see my shows and bringing them with me on some kind of madcap introspective voyage.”

Shortlisted for the Outstanding Neurodiverse Performance award at Brighton Fringe 2025
