Richard Lindesay - Comedy Writer

I am a freelance comedy writer and have written for standup comedians, public speakers, and marketing, 
throughout Europe, USA, and Australasia. I provides the following services:

Stand-up Comedians
I work with stand-up comedians to improve their material, alongside also teaching them the methods I used so they can improve their own writing. 
I also write new material for comedians, and rework it with them once they've tried it with an audience.
All of my stand-up comedian work can be anonymous, consider me a ghost writer.

 
Public Speakers

I work with people who are preparing speeches for public occasions such as wedding speeches, keynote speeches.
My focus is on making the speeches funnier and more engaging.
 

Marketing
I work with marketing teams to add humour to their advertising, especially social media content.
My focus is on making the content funnier and more engaging.

"Richard is one of the best comedy writers I know, and he's helped me improve my writing more than anyone else I've collaborated with.”
Tim Muller, New Zealand Comedian

"Richard Lindesay, more than anyone else has really helped me become a prolific joke writer. Before I met him, I was probably only writing about 15 minutes of material a year. Thanks to his mentoring and encouragement, in the last year alone I have written about 3 hours worth of material!  He has also been very helpful in providing feedback on my jokes, helping me turn those rough diamonds into A grade material.” 
Scott Thomson Australian Comedian

"Richard Lindesay is not only a master of word play but of comedy in general.  His understanding of the comedic form, both in terms of writing and performance are of an exceptionally high standard and he is an essential person for me to collaborate with in all avenues of my comedy career." 
Ashton Brown, New Zealand Comedian

Richard wrote me five minutes of standup comedy material which got good laughs on stage first time!

Richard took my five minute comedy set, increased it to ten minutes, and made it funnier!

Whenever I have run out of steam with my standup ideas, I call Richard and he finds gold! Often a flippant thought or a short joke will turn into a longer piece that I can reliably use on stage.

"Richard created comedic videos for my startup Evertoon.  ​His work is creative and fast.  ​I'm planning to work with him again." 
Niniane Wang, Founder & CEO of Evertoon

"Quick and funny! Will definitely be using again."
