Ava Vidal

'With her striking looks this relaxed newcomer quickly commands the stage…' CHORTLE

Ava Vidal started her comedy career as part of The BBC Talent Urban Sketch Show Team, where she not only performed but wrote a series of short sketches. She then transferred her skills from character comedy to straight stand up and quickly became successful getting her first paid gig within a week. She was then booked to appear in clubs all over the country and despite her short time on the circuit had no trouble in commanding the audiences' attention. She made her international debut within two months at Berlin's Blue Monday Club. She was the only female to reach the finals of the BBC 3 New Comedy Awards. Ava's talent is also being recognised by television executives and she has made several television appearances.
