Dave Thompson is a stand-up comedian and physical performer known for his surreal imagination, visual comedy and distinctive character work. His sets are joyfully unpredictable, combining absurd ideas with an instinct for the kind of silliness that can make an audience laugh before the punchline has fully arrived.
Thompson was the original performer inside Tinky Winky in Teletubbies, a role that brought his physical comedy to a global audience. He has performed internationally, written for Harry Hill and appeared in films including Ben Elton's Maybe Baby, alongside a long career on the live circuit.
For alternative comedy rooms, festivals and events that need something unmistakably different, Thompson is a memorable choice. He brings a cult performer's originality and the technical skill to make even the strangest idea land in a live room.
