I'm Adam Larter.
​
A London-based alt comic who has been writing and performing comedy for over 15 years. Not a household name but a proud fringe comic I'm best known for creating cult comedy collective Weirdos Comedy who have won various awards over the years.
​
Some people also know me for creating ​a Greggs out of cardboard in my living room.​
I wrote and directed a comedy play on an ice-rink
Over projects over the years include my medieval disco musical Boogie Knights. ​
Immersive high concept show 'The Envelopes'
The Big Pitch - is my advertising themed night which I run sporadically with Ellen Turnill Montoya [My day job is in advertising - if you want to find out about that you've gotta go to LinkedIn I'm afraid].
I'm also a director and have collaborated on excellent shows with Tony Law, Mark Silcox, Mr Handsome (Ellen Turnill Montoya), Katie Pritchards, Kristian D Kirklan, Sam & Tom (Sam Nicoresti and Tom Burgess), Ali Brice, Pat Cahill and Dave Bibby.

WEIRDOS COMEDY​
​
​
Weirdos Comedy Club was founded in 2011 by Adam.
The club was founded as a small, off-the-radar open-mic where acts could perform weird shit. Since then, the night and the acts in it's collective have gone on to do great things.
​
Weirdos have performed five full length pantomimes for charity, performed a Supergrass musical infront of Supergrass, sold out Leicester Square Theatre with a surreal Harry Potter tribute and performed a comedy play on ice.
All scripts are original and everything is done without funding.
