Darren was the first black British male ever to be nominated for the Best Comedy Show Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2019.
He’s now a rising star and will be touring the UK WITH his 2023 show ‘Roadman’. He’s come a long way since his early days in the Black Country and with a plethora of TV credits to his name this young man is set to go stratospheric!
‘Roadman’ charts Darren’s rise from wannabe bad boy, to gang member, to TV mainstay – which means his popularity at his mom’s local co-op has skyrocketed! From working security at the 99p Store to performing at theatres, it’s been quite the few years for Darren and he’s excited to tell you all about it.
TV includes host of Live at The Apollo, co-host of Love Island: Aftersun, Team Captain on Guessable plus appearances on The Last Leg, Bake Off: Extra Slice and 8 Out of 10 Cats. Forthcoming TV includes Dancing on Ice and World’s Most Dangerous Roads.
Darren is also the co-host of the Podcasts Shame is Delicious and The Hard Sell.
