Abi Clarke

In the olden days, i.e. early 2020, comedians might have expected to spend years gigging up and down the UK in stand-up comedy, before being invited to join a television panel show, and later selling the arena tour. It's not so easy at the moment. One art form that can be performed live in the future is comedy, however there's no chance of arena tour. But one Bristol comedian has gained a large following through social media lockdown. Abi Clarke wasn't aiming to become an internet celebrity. Abi, 24 is from Henbury, and began creating videos online "to create a network of like-minded people who would be interested in my standup comedy." "I was performing regularly in Devon for men in their 50s that were not so enthusiastic about my Love Island Sims and Twilight references so it was time to get online and find other young women who would enjoy my stand-up comedy." Abi, who lives in Henbury, with her parents has continued to upload her videos to Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok. She draws inspiration from many sources, including conversations with strangers, the chat room, and writing down all her thoughts on her smartphone.
