With a style of high energy physical comedy, full of deft act-outs, he skilfully brings to life the characters he encounters there to life, from personal trainers to football celebrations.

Winning various competitions in the north west, he’s definitely an act on the rise to watch out for.

He’s just supported Brennan Reece‘s tour at The Lowry Theatre at Salford Quays.
