Warren Speed

Warren has been performing on the UK comedy circuit since 2000.  His high energy, physical style of comedy always gets an audience laughing and he has a number of memorable routines.  Also adept as a compere, Warren's charisma and quick witted improvisational skills allow him to go with the flow of the crowd and find humour wherever the conversation may lead.

Warren began performing stand-up comedy after deciding he needed an outlet for his exhibitionism.  When he first started he was frequently seen onstage in a pink bikini, although thankfully it has now been a few years since he has worn it!  Before entering the world of comedy, Warren was variously employed as a printer, a probation officer, a music journalist, a bassist in a rock band, and a door-to-door Avon sales rep where he had much fun selling make-up, bras and knickers to bored housewives.

Although proud of his North Yorkshire heritage Warren never takes himself too seriously and loves to have a few sly digs at the traditional way of life in the local village where he was brought up.  Now based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Warren regularly travels the length and breadth of the UK performing and one day hopes to actually make some constructive use of all the time he spends in his car (instead of just listening to non-stop rock music).

Besides performing comedy, Warren is also head honcho of the Funny Bones entertainment company who run numerous comedy shows throughout the UK, as well as working as agents for a number of other comedians, magicians, fire-breathers, burlesque acts, tribute bands and cabaret stars.

Besides comedy club shows, Warren has also performed at many corporate, private and university gigs, as well as hosting the likes of the Great North Run, "The Battleground" (kickboxing competition), students balls, speed-dating nights, and many nightclub party events.
