Thanks for downloading this episode of The Young Comedians Podcast where I chat to Patrick Healy.
Patrick began performing when he was 18, after his mum dared him to, and a year later he reached the finals of the prestigious “So You Think You're Funny?” and Hackney Empire New Act of the Year competitions- all while still a teenager. His dry, left-field observations, relaxed stage presence, and "idiosyncratic worldview" (London Evening Standard) have led to regular appearances at some of the country's biggest comedy clubs.
