Andrew Maxwell is to play a run of gigs in London. The ever-insightful Irishman is at the Soho Theatre from February 5 - 10 with his Edinburgh Festival hit Showtime.

Showtime was one of the best-reviewed shows of last year’s Fringe. It is a cocktail of personal stories, political observations and a surprising number of brilliant comedy character cameo’s including a cockney priest and a couple of aggressive but very lovely Italians.

Renowned for his cutting-edge comedy, this legendary laughter-inducer is a must-see for any comedy fan. Thought-provoking, charming and an acclaimed master of his craft, he has won and been nominated for numerous awards throughout his career, from Chortle’s Comic’s Comic in 2005 to being twice-nominated for the prestigious Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award. 

Maxwell’s many TV credits include John Bishop’s Only Joking (Sky), Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central (Comedy Central), Live at the Apollo (BBC), Delete Delete Delete (BBC), Eureka (RTE), The Blame Game (BBC) and One Night Stand (Dave). He can also be seen on various TV shows, including Mock the Week, Have I Got News for You and Safeword.

He has also co-hosted The Sin Bin (TV3) with Joe Molloy and is the voice of MTV’s hugely popular Ex on the Beach. He presented the BBC3 documentary Conspiracy Coach Trip (Renegade Pictures) which focused on the 7/7 bombings, creationism and UFOs and is a regular on BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz, BBC Radio Scotland’s Breaking the News and hosted his own authored series, Public Enemies, on Radio 4.
