Edward Tripp is a Northern Irish comedian, poet and visual artist, who performs at both stand-up comedy venues and spoken-word venues across the UK.
Once described as Dave Allen meets David Lynch, Edward is a genre-bending multiple poetry-slam winner and 'anti-slam' winner. He has brought his unique brand of spoken-word comedy to nights and festivals across the country. He will be bringing his one-man show 'No Man is an Ireland' to the Edinburgh Festival this year. 'No Man is an Ireland' is also the name of Edward's debut poetry collection.
Edward was also appointed ‘Bard of Exeter’ in 2022 and he will be representing Exeter in this year’s International ‘Slam-O-Vision’ competition.
"Whenever Edward is on a comedy lineup, I know I'm in for a treat. Seek him out like buried treasure!" - Spencer Jones (Comedian, actor)
“Absurd and hysterical stand-up and poetry that had the audience in stitches.” - Razz Magazine
