Puppeteer, circus performer and the voice of Potto in Sesame Tree.
A former street performer, Paul Currie began performing stand-up in clubs in 2004, and won the Derry Big Tickle new comedy award in 2005. His first one-man show played at Edinburgh in 2009 and he was part of the Avalon Comedy Zone in 2011, before returning with another solo show in 2013.
Fusing traditional stand-up, with the energy and crowd work of his street performing background, mixed with puppetry, clowning and cabaret he offers audiences something new and refreshing. He has featured on the BBC cult tv comedy show Live at the Electric. Former winner of the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Comedians Choice award for Best Show, his previous show ‘Hot Donkey’ garnered multiple 5 star reviews, and was a sell out at Melbourne Comedy Festival & Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
