Using comedy to change perceptions

Neil writes, directs and occasionally performs on the open mic comedy circuit. He has written and directed many household names including Joanna Lumley, Hugh Laurie, Steve First, Dolly Wells, Paul O'Grady and Tom Hollander. Neil believes laughter is the best way to draw people in and get them to see things differently.

Comedy

Tony Biscotti's School for Dramatic Youth was a 20-minute comedy pilot we produced for Nickelodeon. Staring Steve Firth and a cast of very talented young performers.

Inclusivity

One of the things Neil is particularly skilled at is finding the funny in and around disability. Born with a form of spina bifida, Neil has always used comedy to help change people's perception around his and others people's differences.

BBC Work

I learned to write and direct (both in multi-camera studies and on location) whilst working at BBC Schools TV in the 90s. Wherever I could, I would put comedy and entertainment into the programmes I made

Why is Neil so funny?

It's simple... Neil does Stand-up Comedy... Why? Well he doesn't like people laughing at him... Yes, he's deadly serious.

Neil regularly performs on the comedy circuit in London and the South East. By exercising his funny bone in front of a live audience he keeps himself sharp. Doing live comedy is the way to get immediate feedback. If it's not funny no one will laugh, so you make sure it's funny.
