Sean Percival is a comedian, scriptwriter and radio presenter whose act has been described as 'a working man’s revenge on the safe, middle-class, politically correct humour that has dominated comedy’.
An ex-welder from Dudley, Sean grew disillusioned with his day job and went into comedy, growing in humour and stature with each passing act. Now Sean is a prized stand-up comedian with an upfront attitude. He confronts realism in an explosively funny way and has had significant success on the television and radio circuit.
Sean is famed for his utter honesty and edgy humour. He delves into topics that many dare not venture and comes out with the same adoration. He is light-hearted in his teasing witticisms and forms sensational, quick punchlines.
He is a riot at corporate events and a festival favourite, having had crowds giggling through gigs at Glastonbury, Download, Sonisphere and Reading, as well as the biggest comedy festival in Europe, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. He is a well-established headliner of major comedy clubs and has whizzed around the country delivering his hearty act. He’s also been a regular host at the Jongleurs Comedy Club.
In addition, Percival has worked alongside other British comedians and big names in the radio industry as a scriptwriter, including Johnny Vaughan with whom he collaborated on the drive time radio show for Birmingham’s Capital FM radio. The show received a record amount of complaints! He provided the voice for “Black Country Bob” on two shows fronted by radio host Ian Danter.
So don’t expect diplomatic jokes and inoffensive punchlines. Percival is respectful and intelligent enough to know the boundaries but assured and gallant enough to swat them aside. Sean can tone down his act, and heat it up at the flick of a switch, so you can be safe in the knowledge that he will entertain at your event, and tailor his material to fit your needs.
Sean Percival is the perfect stand-up comedian for corporate events, radio and private parties. He is sharp on stage, with his wit and unique freedom is able to engage an audience. From start to finish, Sean is a powerful, animated and straight-talking speaker.
