Details

Over many years Ed has written, directed and performed work for and with many of the UK's most loved comedians, sketch teams and clowns, including Milton Jones, Josie Long, Will Adamsdale, Barry Cryer, Pappy's and Spymonkey. He's also the voice of Baron Greenback in Dangermouse, Gideon in Sky TV's Brassic and co-creator & star of the BAFTA nominated movie 'Skeletons', which won 'The Michael Powell Award For Cinema' at Edinburgh Film Festival. Ed is a 'Peter Sellers Comedy Award' nominee. As a musician Ed has performed numerous gigs including Glastonbury, London Jazz and Porto Jazz Festivals and as a composer for stage, screen and audio. (Most recently scoring 'Hamlet' for Shakespeare's Globe) Words and Music is about a trip Ed took to the doctor, and what he found out was so utterly ... But hang on, before we get to that: he needs to tell you about growing up in an immigrant Irish family who test the limits of eccentricity, workshops with young offenders and brushes with national treasures.
