Danny Bhoy
Comedian

Scotland’s Danny Bhoy has had a phenomenal year, which has seen him become one of the biggest acts on the international scene. 2006 began with an extensive tour of Australia, with completely sold out seasons in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane, before embarking on a tour of all the major cities and regional towns in New Zealand, becoming the highest selling comedian at the New Zealand Comedy Festival for the second year in a row. Danny returns to the Edinburgh Fringe festival in August where he is already the biggest ticket seller and will complete his year with a extensive tour of the UK.

Danny's engaging persona, razor sharp mind, and stunning off-the-cuff material have made him one of the most sought after performers on the circuit. His debut show at the Edinburgh Festival in 2001 was a total sell out with extra shows added due to public demand.

He won the 1999 Daily Telegraph Open Mic Award, one of Britain's biggest comedy newcomer prizes, just one year on from his first gig. Since then he has gone from strength to strength, with appearances at the coveted festivals in Melbourne, New York and Montreal.

"In a comedy landscape littered with concept humor and art-house themed shows, Danny Bhoy's high-energy, topical, observational comedy is a breath of fresh air." - THE FACE

" His quick witted delivery reminds you of just how good real stand-up can be" - THE EXPRESS

"Mesmerising stage presence…a comic for the new Millennium" - EVENING STANDARD

"He draws the audience into a performance which is relevant and razor sharp" - SUNDAY HERALD

“The moment that best summed it up for me, was turning around mid-show and seeing the entire venue filled with people bending over themselves, clutching their stomachs with laughter. A must-do on the festival calendar”.
