Larry Dean
Three-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, Larry Dean is set to embark on a national tour this autumn with his brand-new stand up show Dodger.
Dodger sees Larry 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.
Comedian Larry Dean joins the line-up of guests this week hoping to take away one of Richard Osman's highly desirable prizes on House of Games. Dean is up against Kirsty Gallagher, Sam Quek and Lemn Sissay. Sam Quek is a hockey player turned presenter, Gallagher is a presenter whose sister Laura is married to Russell Brand. And Lemn Sissay is an acclaimed poet who has written movingly about growing up in care.
Triple Edinburgh Comedy Award Nominee Larry Dean’s debut special of his critically-acclaimed hour ‘Fandan’ is set to be released on 9th February 2023. Produced and distributed by 800 Pound Gorilla Media, the special will be available to watch via on demand platform Moment.
Am I the Larry Dean jinx? Last time I saw his show when he'd been nominated for an Edinburgh Comedy Award in 2018 somebody in the audience had an epileptic fit and the show had to be suspended. This time Dean, nominated again, was going great guns when someone in the front row seemed to take unwarranted offence at a spot of friendly banter. Shortly afterwards they walked out, temporarily shiftng the dynamic of the gig.
Scottish stand-up star Larry Dean is heading out on a major new tour in 2020 and will continue touring until 2021.
His latest show is called Fudnut.
The tour starts at the Glee Club in Oxford on September 17, 2020 and currently finishes on March 20, 2021 at the Kings Theatre in Glasgow.
Tickets go on sale on Friday 25 Oct 2019 at 11am.
OK, confession time. When I ask question 8 - “I think you are very good at what you do” – I don’t always mean it. It’s there to make comics feel good. But in the case of Larry Dean I really do mean it. Ever since I saw him in the Piccadilly Comedy Club New Comedian of 2013 Final I could see he had something. He won that competition and went on to pick up an Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer nomination in 2015 and win the Amused Moose Comedy Award in 2016.
