Brendon Burns

Brendon Burns is dismayed with the live comedy scene in the UK and deep down, he knows you are too. A scene he used to love, that now seems more preoccupied with selling beer and easy laughs than finding a voice or even a point of view not normally heard.

So he's decided to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Doug Stanhope and Patton Oswalt in the US and leave the comedy clubs behind, touring absolutely anything but. From zoos to libraries, from old indy music venues to comic book stores, Brendon Burns is breaking out of the box.

Burns is not your everyday comic. Older, wiser, calmer (and after being fitted with a hearing aid, infinitely quieter) Brendon's energy is still enticing. His turn of phrase is coarse yet oddly eloquent, whilst remaining fully accessible and intensely loveable.
