Chris Stokes

 












Award-winning (Best Show – Dave’s Leicester
Comedy Festival 2012) Chris Stokes has been performing stand-up comedy since
2007 and since then has supported Milton Jones and Pete Firman on UK tours,
shown up on Dave’s One Night Stand and taken two acclaimed solo shows to the
Edinburgh Fringe as well as appearing on several mixed bill showcases.


Chris is currently working on his third
solo show, which will be previewed around the country in coming months.


With an hilarious and erudite turn of
phrase, his act has been described as playing on social misconceptions and
dismantling them on stage via gag-packed first-hand anecdotes told with a
charming and offbeat sincerity.


As well as stand-up, Chris is also one
quarter of new sketch comedy group The Mitford Sisters and has had several
articles published.
