Edward has been a comedian and actor for 10 years. Prior to that he worked in a humdrum office before running away to the stage. He is known for his shambolic anti comedy style and has won the Malcom Hardee Award and was runner up in the BBC New Comedy Awards. 2017 marks his eighth solo show on the fringe and in 2015 he also performed in the award-winning Waiting for Gaddot with Richard Gadd. ‘Aczel is more of a verbal clown: he presents himself as an informed idiot – a man who has read a lot of books on a lot of subjects but understood none of them’ The Guardian
