ADDY VAN DER BORGH | "Comic genius" THE SCOTSMAN
“Borgh has funny bones. This man was born to make people laugh” – Evening Standard
"An excellent stand-up with intelligence and wit" - The Guardian
"Brilliant natural clown" - The Daily Telegraph
Addy Borgh has that rare talent of making people laugh when he walks on stage (helped of course by a large nose and mad eyes). Addy is a great performer of highly acclaimed and original material, an ability noticed immediately by the BBC when he appeared on the ‘Standup show’ (BBC1) after only o ne year as a comedian. He has subsequently appeared on ‘Live at Jongleurs’ for Sky TV and will be appearing in the forthcoming BBC3 series from Baby Cow Productions, “Brain Candy”.
With brilliant timing and an array of voices and characters which animate and enliven even the most drab subject matter (computers, museums, libraries) Addy has built a following of fans not just in all the major clubs in Britain (Comedy Store, Jongleurs, Comedy Cafe etc) but also worldwide, including Holland, Australia, New Zealand, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vietnam,Thailand and most recently the Smirnoff Ice Comedy Festival in Cape Town, South Africa.
“With a potent mix of brilliant mimicry, offbeat character comedy and hilarious observations, Addy takes you on a journey of the mind to the many voices in your head, that come together in a brilliant combination” –Time Out
