Aaron Counter

“very impressive” - Dominic Maxwell, The Times

Aaron Counter entertains his audiences with a measured, self-assured stage presence and flat out funny material. Engaging and quick-witted, his relaxed and playful delivery balances nicely against a sometimes acerbic take on modern life.

Born in Australia, Aaron has swiftly established himself as a regular act at comedy venues throughout the UK. In 2005 he was a Finalist in the BBC New Comedy Awards and in 2006 he appeared in the “Big Value” Show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Since then he has performed extensively throughout the UK and abroad.
