Danny Ward’s observational humour is up-beat and well honed, and his easy-going style both endearing and very funny. One of the new breed of comics with a high energy set, Danny started comedy in late 2008 and has since established himself as comic to watch.
It was a complete absence of any success in his 20s that nurtured Danny’s bitter outrage and pushed him towards a career in stand-up comedy. Crushed by his failure to strike-up lasting relationships with the people he approached on his local high street and near-devastated to discover that fulfilment and contentment were not to be had by stalking the random goods aisle of Lidl, he comforted himself with the conviction that just by living his life he was accumulating enough thought provoking tales to fill up a policeman’s notebook. Years passed. Then, armed with his tales and at the behest of absolutely no-one, Danny took to the stage.
With more angles and sharp edges to him than the tool department at Homebase, he has a presence on stage that once witnessed is not forgotten, no matter how hard you might try.
He has appeared at clubs across the UK; from University gigs to 300 capacity Arts Centres as tour support to many big name acts. Danny has also performed to returning troops as part of the Decompression Tour in Cyprus for CSE.
Danny has performed many great shows to critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Festival.
"Danny Ward's observational humour is brilliantly delivered ... This is top quality stand up that should have filled the venue twice over. I implore you to go and see it!"

"Danny Ward clicked with the capacity crowd immediately and his brilliantly-timed, slightly manic approach was bolstered by some really tight, strong material. His often hilarious riffs on everyday shopping at discount stores created a thread that worked brilliantly throughout, with a killer ending"
