"Intelligent comedy from the highly amusing and baby-faced Green" – The List
Actor, writer and comedian Matt Green has been performing stand up comedy since 2003. His act is a mixture of high energy observational and topical jokes combined with more personal stories and anecdotes. He is a talented yarn-spinner, setting scenes evocatively, and patiently teases out the laughs.
Matt has produced four solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe since 2008, and returns to headline The Comedy Box with his distinctive nerdy, brainy comedy.
"Green is a stand-up audience's dream; his off-the-cuff jokes are so good they could have been scripted, and his clever prepared material is delivered so nonchalantly it could have been improvised...an explosion of comedy that left everyone in stitches" Three Weeks (Edinburgh Fringe 2009)
"Comic gold...he delivers his observations superbly well, and does not dip in quality at any point. With a great deal of improvisatory talent to fall back on, Green cannot fail to impress anyone who appreciates a good stand-up routine." Three Weeks (Edinburgh Fringe)
"Green is in his element when discussing the crazy goings-on of everyday life...he tells these anecdotes with noticeable zeal – enthusiasm which rubs off on his audience.” Fest (Edinburgh Fringe)
"It’s hard to imagine anyone would leave this show disappointed. It is as solidly satisfying as a carb-laden Fringe dinner...and Green proves himself an adept comic" Chortle.co.uk
“Effervescent prepubescent charm. Green’s deftly scripted observational material has a brilliantly earnest quality" The Skinny (Edinburgh Fringe)
also featuring CHRIS BETTS
"An enticing prospect, a Canadian who deals in off-kilter thoughts sharpened by the occasional prod at taboo topics." The Independent
Chris Betts hails from Canada and has performed all over the world, quickly gaining a reputation for being one of the smartest and funniest acts on the circuit. He has received numerous plaudits for his sharp material and relaxed stage presence. Chris Betts’ mind is a curious place, where the philosophical meets the ridiculous. His material is a perfect balance of incisive social satire and complete silliness. He has a style that is equal parts confident, thoughtful, ridiculous and mischievous.
"A confident style... a glint of steelier edge." Chortle
