Gary Colman

'...soon to become a name to conjure with...' time out march 2006

stand-up

Gary failed at many jobs before arriving at stand-up comedy. He originally studied medicine, famously inventing the 'Colman Manoeuvre'... it's similar to the Heimlich, but only works on soup. Gary then spent 14 years as a doctor in the army, ironically eventually being discharged on medical grounds... the grounds being essentially he was a rubbish doctor. He then left the army to become a comedian just before the last Gulf war... as they say... the secret of comedy... timing. Gary now tours the length and breadth of east London as a highly successful unemployed comedian.

gary is resident mc at electric mouse palmers green, has headlined at electric mouse soho and spitalfields (see www.electricmousecomedy.com). gary has also mc'ed and opened for various mirthcontrol venues and performed at the comedy cafe and downstairs at the kingshead.
