Duncan Hart

Duncan Hart burst onto the UK comedy scene in the late ’90s at the tender age of 18. After a solid stint on the circuit, he stepped back from the mic to carve out a successful career behind the scenes in television, putting together shows for all the big broadcasters and working alongside comedy heavyweights like Dara Ó Briain, Russell Howard, James Acaster, and circuit legend Arthur Smith.

Now, after more than a decade away, Duncan’s back with renewed vigour and stories to tell.Energetic, sharp, and effortlessly likeable, he exploits his tragic-comic life for every painfully funny gag –  blending punchy writing with off-the-cuff crowd work and just the right amount of chaos. With a commanding stage presence and a natural gift for banter, he’s once again being tipped as ‘one to watch’.
