MIKE WILMOT
 Current Time Out & Barry award winning comedian, MIKE WILMOT started life as stand-up in 1995. Since then he’s become very popular in the UK and Ireland performing on the comedy circuit over here since 1998, and at the Edinburgh Festival – to great critical acclaim. Mike’s effortlessly funny style is a fast-paced, hard-hitting comedic look at everyday life. His comedy targets vary widely, from diets, kids and sex - to American-Canadian backbiting and his fondness for beer. On stage he times himself by how many pints he’s had, rather than having to look at his watch. A proud cynic, Mike is politically and anatomically incorrect, but with a passing resemblance to Oliver Reed he is completely engaging.
Mike is currently filming ‘Rich Hall’s Fishing Show’ for the BBC, due to be aired in October. Television credits include: Brain Candy (BBC Choice) The Stand Up Show - series three & five (BBC One) The Comedy Store – series one, three & five (Channel Five) Clarkson (BBC Two) Up Late With Sean Hughes (BBC Choice) Shoot The Messenger – Team Captain (Paramount Comedy Channel) He has also appeared numerous times at the prestigious Just For Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal. Mike has been in several feature films, some of which will be shown in UK cinemas later this year. Mike has performed at every major UK venue, as well as in Ireland, Scandinavia, Paris, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Bangkok and South Africa. Press Quotes: ‘The highlight was Mike Wilmot, a fast talking stand-up whose close-to-the-bone repertoire leaves the audience in a state of hilarity that most comedians can only dream of’ (The Sunday Times) ‘The bear-like, gravel voiced Mile Wilmot fires keen reports from the front line of the sex wars. He sweats; he shambles; he swears. You’ll cough, choke and chortle’ (The Glasgow Herald) ‘At times raucous, offensive and downright crude, he was nonetheless very, very funny producing belly cackles of genuine mirth throughout….this was a most entertaining experience’ (The Scotsman) ‘Bearing an uncanny resemblance to both Oliver Reed and Rodney Dangerfield, the 38 year-old Canadian is a natural raconteur, dispensing with a watch, preferring to use beer as a clock’ (The Independent) ‘Respite is at hand in the shape of Mike Wilmot, Canada’s answer to Bill Hicks’ (Metro) ‘Like any fine comedian, he exudes intelligence and sweat in equal measures, Wilmot can give any other stand-up alive lessons in the power of laughter to free us from the shackles of embarrassment’ (Time Out)
