When Jan Maree first performed stand-up comedy at V.Q. Bar in Wellington in 1994, all she was hoping to accomplish was free beer and maybe score the attention of the lead guitarist in the half-time band. Regardless of her successes, her ambitions remain mostly the same.
Jan Maree has been described as a chauvinist's nightmare and a thinking man's wet dream. Her material ranges from true-life graphic to volatile social slaughter. She's also a bit of alright.
She has compiled a wide-ranging live/festival show career of assorted achievement. The better of these include "It's In The Bag," for which she won the Billy T Award for Comedy in 2001.
Jan Maree resides in Whaingaroa (Raglan) with her dog Titch and her many, many Jackie Collins novels.
"(Jan Maree is) What Billy Connolly would be like if he had been born a Croatian woman." kiwireviews.co.nz
