Starting in stand-up comedy at the tender age of 18, Teddy has appeared at comedy clubs across the UK including The Stand Comedy Clubs in Edinburgh & Glasgow, XS Malarkey, The Iguana, and the Buzz Club in Manchester, Laughing Horse gigs across London, and many more.
His material encompasses personal tales and sharp topical gags. Despite being known for having a dark edge to some of his material, he has also been able to tailor his wit to suit his increasing media work.
