Barry and Sian: Lockdown - Late 2

What's it all about

Barry and I (Sian) have worked together for 5 years. We met at drama school (CSSD) in 2000 and formed a strong friendship always threatening to work together...

We are Observational Sketch Comedians, our humour is a commentary on society today and if there's any a time for humour it is now!

WHAT IS OUR AIM?
  • To initially film and launch an online sketch show 10-15mins per episode (We have enough material for at leats 12)
  • To create a podcast
  • WE HAVE A LOT MORE MATERIAL TO SHOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED...
WHAT IS DIFFERENT?
  • We don't solely rely on a punchline, it is character and nuanced driven - sometimes less is more!
  • Not a lot of male/ female acts out there
  • We are both actor trained and gay (Why not in the same sentence?)
  • We are continually developing and perform at least one live show a year
  • We won't give up!
  • To date we have WON Boomtish! New Comedy Act 2016; became runners up in the Leicester Square Sketch Off 2017 (With me being likened to Olivia Colman!! Which is rather marvellous!)

We are currently writing our new show for the Brighton Fringe 'Barry & Sian: Exposed' - https://www.brightonfringe.org/whats-on/barry-and-sian-exposed-134333/
