Richard was a grand finalist in the UK Musical Comedy Awards in 2020, which finds the best musical comedians each year from hundreds of participants. Richard had a big impact during the heats of the competition and was put straight to the final. Richard was unable to perform due to COVID implications, but he was tipped by judges as a favourite to win.
Comedy Promoters and Media Reviews
⭐️ "Richard entered the 2020 WeGotTickets Musical Comedy Awards as one of the top 40 entries and stormed his way through the heats straight to the final at his first attempt. The competition celebrates the best emerging musical comics based in the UK and is always hugely competitive with a very high standard of acts. Before the pandemic hit, Richard was set to perform at the final in the gorgeous 535 seater Bloomsbury Theatre in central London, where he was one of the favourites to win the competition.
His unique and highly original brand of flute and recorder based musical comedy made him a hit with both judges and audiences alike and we are certain that his success will continue in New Zealand and Australia. For all bookers and promoters looking for a hilarious and unforgettable act for your shows, we highly recommend that you book Richard. You won't regret it."
Ed Chappel - Organiser of the WeGotTickets Musical Comedy Awards, UK
⭐️ "Richard is a comedy wunderkind!"
Tim Ferguson, Doug Anthony All Stars, and Writer/Director of "Spin out"
⭐️ “Consistently engaging and hilarious, Richard is always popular with our audiences.”
Sean Morahan, A Laugh And A Half, Sydney
⭐️ "I have booked Richard twice for my night in Swindon (Chappers Comedy) and both times he has blown our audience away with his unique comedic style. What is so appealing about Richard's act is that it is so inclusive and resonates with everybody. Laughs come thick and fast in what is always one of the most entreating sets of the night. Highly recommend."
Chappers Comedy
⭐️ "Richard Lindesay is a master of the of art of one-liners. He brings both content and delivery that can easily go toe-to-toe with the heavy punchers in the game. And on top of that, his flute playing antics will leave you holding your jaw, and grabbing at your gut."
