Larry is an award-winning comedian, writer and actor. Larry has been nominated on three occasions for the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Awards and has performed all over the world.
His stand up special Fandan, produced by 800 Pound Gorilla Media, was released last year and aired on Channel 4.
Larry’s broadcasting career goes from strength to strength, with credits including: two appearances on Live at the Apollo (once as host), Mock the Week, House of Games, Roast Battle, The Stand Up Sketch Show, The Comedy Roast for SU2C, and he performed stand up on Michael McIntyre’s Big Show for BBC1.
His latest stand-up show is called Dodger and sees him contemplate his heroes and his identity. His hero was Elvis, but this year his thoughts have been all shook up.
Stemming from his granny’s dementia diagnosis, a few things have been put into perspective regarding the people who deserve our respect and why.
Helping to look after his granny has also opened Larry up to reflect on his own mind since being newly diagnosed as autistic.
He is now beginning to make sense of who he is and what that means for the people around him, not least his new boyfriend Mikey, who seems to get Larry in ways that his previous partners never did. Perhaps it’s that Mikey shares Larry’s twin passions of Elvis Presley and leaving the UK for America as soon as is humanly possible.
Dodger is a hilarious show about finding out our heroes weren’t necessarily who we expected, and neither were we.
