After Dinner SpeakersSimon Brodkin is a British comedian whose blend of razor-sharp stand-up, character-driven chaos, and headline-stealing pranks has carved him a one-of-a-kind place in modern comedy.
Trained as a doctor before turning to the stage full-time, Brodkin eventually swapped medical rounds for comedy clubs.
Many first met Simon through his hit alter ego, Lee Nelson, the tracksuit-wearing whirlwind who went from small club stages to primetime TV and sold out theatres. Lee Nelson is one of the UK’s most recognisable comedy characters.
However, Brodkin’s evolution from character actor to stand-up comedian has revealed a comic voice that’s sharper, braver and more personal than ever.
Away from the microphone, Simon Brodkin became internationally famous for his outrageously bold stunts. His stunts have dominated front pages and have left audiences wondering how he pulled them off. Whether interrupting global sports bosses, crashing political conferences or turning up at events he very clearly wasn’t invited to, Brodkin’s prankster persona blends satire, social commentary and pure audacity.
On stage, he’s just as fearless. His stand-up is fast-paced, high-energy and packed with accents, characters and perfectly delivered punchlines. His recent tours have cemented his skill for finding humour in every corner of modern life.
Simon’s recent ‘Screwed Up’ tour sold out 170 dates internationally and culminated in a three-night residency at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
With millions of online views, multiple hit TV shows, critically praised Edinburgh Fringe runs, and a reputation as the UK’s most inventive live performer, comedian Simon Brodkin continues to push boundaries and keep audiences laughing harder than they expect.
