Richard Lindesay is a highly original musical comedian whose act is a surprising and surreal mixture of the flute and other woodwind instruments, layered upon clown-like physical comedy and sharp one-liner jokes. Richard's comedy is inclusive, inoffensive, and clean.
Richard started comedy in Australia in 2013, and has recently returned after performing professionally for several years throughout the UK and Europe.
Richard was a finalist in the 2020 UK Musical Comedy Awards.
"'Richard has wonderfully unique and charming humour, brilliantly composed material,
and an appreciation for flutes that I’ve never seen before. A top act."
Heckle and Squelch
"Richard absolutely smashed at Ffandangos. He had the audience hanging on every word / Note.
I thoroughly recommend booking him."
Steffan Evans, Comedy Promoter
"Richard mixes surrealism, a truly inventive use of the flute, brilliant one-liners,
and perfect timing to produce comedy gold that you do not want to miss!"
What the Fork
"Richard Lindesay provided witty one-liners, cracking jokes and comical stories.
And let's not forget his awesome rendition on the flute too. Definitely added spark to this years Xmas party."
Laura Mercurio, Global Front Room
"Richard's icebreaker comedy set was spot on!"
Andrew Dingley, CTO, Westpac Bank
