award winning stand up Mock The Week star Ava Vidal "A towering talent" The List"
Wonderful. A class comic" The Stage responsibility is epidemic, and in today's shallow society bad behaviour is not just forgiven, but celebrated. Ava herself has been praised for forging a successful comedy career despite the rigors of being a single parent - but who deserves kudos for getting pregnant at 17? It's hardly a difficult achievement. And her irresponsibility doesn't end there. Too much drink and drugs have landed her in some tight spots with unsavoury characters - including an attempted murder."A natural on-stage charm and chatty demeanour... Impressive" Chortle
Yet despite her reckless living, Ava reluctantly finds herself carrying the burdens of a role model. As a black person, as a woman, as a mother - all these elements of society expect her to represent them,and behave accordingly. That's a responsibility no one wants.Such pressures have forced Ava to examine her image as much as her behaviour, and ask the question: can you really change either?"Funny, witty and engaging, this is a comedian worth watching" Three Weeks
Ava Vidal was a finalist in the 2003 BBC New Comedy Awards and has since appeared in comedy clubs across the world from New York's Improv club to The Blue Monday Club in Berlin. In 2005, she earned herself a place on Channel 4's Kings Of Comedy, alongside Andrew Maxwell, Boothby Graffoe and Stan Boardman after just two years on the circuit. Other TV appearances include The Crouches (BBC1), Sack Race (BBC2), Malai Monologues (BBC3) 28 Acts in 28 Minutes (BBC3) andThe Comic Side of 7 Days (BBC3). She has written as a columnist for The Independent on Sunday

Julian Dean
"Assured and brilliant writing. Deane is a class apart. A master of the pull back and reveal." Chortle.co.uk Corry Shaw
"A particularly nice line in understated pay-offs." Evening Standard, Bruce Dessau
"Demonstrates a hefty body of evidence that comedy is in his bones. He has a ruthlessly efficient delivery with plenty of lines that our top stand ups would be proud of... the man's definitely a pro and clearly has a career in comedy cut out for him." Chortle.co.uk Steve Bennett
"I was blown away by the quality - beautifully crafted jokes with immense impact"Adam Bloom
"Hilarious! he'll be great once he gets off his lazy arse and writes twenty f*****g minutes" Brendon Burns
"'One of the best new acts I've seen in recent years. First rate material, coolly delivered. Regularly makes me go 'now why didn't I think of that joke?'' Gary Delaney
"Deane's well timed deadpan delivery was on cue every time, he'll definitely be one to watch" Medway News
