 The
Beast of British Comedy
This legendary
beast of comedy has performed all over the world with an anarchic display that is both hilarious,
unnerving and strangely moving. totally unpredictable and anarchic - whether it's playing 'fruit
cricket' from the top of a pair of ladders, or sticking an exploding roman candle up his buttocks
and singing 'theres no business like show business'.
A regular on
the comedy circuit throughout Europe and at Festivals such as Montreal, Edinburgh, Melbourne and
Glastonbury.
He has
performed on a number of top bills and during some of the seminal moments in the history of
stand-up. He played in the interlude at gigs for the Rolling Stones, Bryan Adams and Bob Dylan.
