We are so excited to have you at Wrexham Comedy Festival. Have you every performed in Wrexham/North Wales before?

I have performed in Wales before and what I love most about it is the ability to let themselves go and just have a laugh.

What can we expect from your show?

Hilarity and a bit of old school showbiz

What has been your most memorable performance, whether good or bad, and why?

I opened for Micky Flanagan in a few arenas and that was incredible – they weren’t even there for me and yet we had the best time

Tell us something our audience might be surprised to know about you?

I am a black belt in Tae Kwon Do

You’ve worked in so many different formats but what is it about performing standup live that’s so special?

Getting that one on one time with the audience. There is nothing like live.

Any advice to people wanting to get into comedy or are early on in their careers?

Stop. And be a lawyer!

And finally, what’s on the cards for the rest of the year/2025?

Now that’s a secret I’ll never tell XOXO
