Seann Walsh Seann To Be Wild ** Tour extension - Spring 2013 **

‘S‘S‘Slick,‘S lick, funny observational comedy’ **** - Chortle 'Sharp, creative observational comedy from a precocious newcomer.See him now, before the stadium tour' - Sunday Times “Walsh is well on his way to becoming a star attraction” – The Independent

Comedy’s fastest rising star Seann Walsh will be continuing to tour his hit show, Seann To Be Wild, this spring due to popular demand. Walsh will be performing his razor-sharp observational comedy throughout the UK and Ireland in a combination of solo shows plus double headers performances with .

Star of ’s Stand Up For The Week , BBC1’s Live At The Apoll o and Dave’s , Seann is a charming and charismatic natural born observational storyteller, and one of the most frighteningly precocious talents to emerge from the UK comedy circuit in years.

Within two years of his first comedy performance Seann was the winner of the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year . Shortly after other accolades included, Chortle Best Breakthrough Act Nominee 2010 and Chortle Best Compere Nominee 2011.

Seann’s other recent TV appearances include: Channel 4’s Comedy Gala Live At The 02 2012 , Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC2), (BBC2), 8 Out Of 10 Cats (Channel 4) and Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow (BBC1).

Seann Walsh will also be starring in his very own brand new television series ‘Seann Walsh World’ starting in March on Comedy Central. Made by Open Mike Productions, the 13 part series will mix stand-up comedy with viral internet video clips as Seann delves in to his life as a young, single 26 year old comedian.

Seann will also star later this year in Comedy Central’s new original sitcom, ‘Big Bad World’ .

“There are plenty of young male comedians dreaming that they're going to become the next big thing, but Seann Walsh is one of the (very) few with the chops to actually pull it off. For one thing, he seems to have access to a never-ending supply of observational material that absolutely nails the banality and silliness of modern twentysomething living. As well as that, he also delivers it with a spectacular combination of charm and conviction plus a little bit of unpredictability, an edge of danger that sets him above his more bland and processed peers. On top of all that, on his day he's funnier than most of them, too. You may already have seen Walsh popping up on TV shows such as Argumental and Stand Up For The Week but he's at his best when given the bigger canvas of the live stage to display his gag-studded tales of bad sex, public drunkenness and the general downside of being a dumb young man about town” ––– GUARDIAN GUIDE (NOV 20122012))))
