Markus Birdman
Markus Birdman has thundered back into comedy with his Edinburgh Fringe show earning him a nomination for the 2023 Chortle Awards. He has also recently written for Jayde Adams and supported Jason Manford at the Palladium. He is now on tour with his new show, "Platinum".
On June 5th 2021, he had a stroke. It was his second. He found himself in hospital, mid lockdown, with no visitors allowed. He's permanently lost half his eyesight. One night he went to the toilet and sat down on another naked blind man, already there. He was too blind to see him and the other man was too blind to stop him.
So it's not ALL doom!
He’d like to tell us about it. Not to create feelings of pity, more a sense of awe and fawning admiration.
He has had a unique experience about a topic, often sniggered over, but he's keen to make you laugh, but also to raise a little awareness.
