Darryl J Carrington

A visual comedian with a keen eye for a laugh and a trick. I love performing shows in places where its not expected.

Right now I’m a visual comedian, combining everything I’ve learnt in my 2o years experience to create shows that are funny, family friendly and multi disciplinary.

I perform non verbal physical comedy shows and specialise in performing at outdoor arts festivals in the UK and across the world.

They are generally gentle by nature and I have an obsession with turning the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Through my career I have played every type of space and to so many different audiences, I especially love bringing my work to places that aren’t expecting it.

I learnt to Juggle 20 years ago and it opened up a whole new world.

I started my creative journey as a painter and sculptor, I moved into physical performance.

Studying at Circomedia I graduated in 2008 as a trapeze catcher and toured the world playing Arenas as John Grayson in Batman live,

I returned to the UK and toured Open house with no fit state.

Returning to Circomedia as the head of juggling in the BTEC course, where I wrote the syllabus.

Since then I’ve performed, close up magic, stand up comedy, done immersive theatre, rigged, danced, been in group shows, devised solo shows, returned to stand up with a non verbal character.
