About Me

My name is Martin Plant and I am a stand up comedian, and I work hard to remain a true comic, to not become a guy who stand on stage and tells you mother-in-law jokes and does fuck awful impressions of "celebrities".

Real comedy comes from real things and no subject should be off limits, if some of its ok to joke about, its all ok to joke about.

I've been doing this for 6 years and have performed all over the U.K, attracting some pretty good reviews and working with some excellent comics and playing some great venues.

I owe being able to do what I do to those who went before me, Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, and many more, and Id be an asshole if I let them down.

I like Individuals, people who have a skill or talent and aren't afraid to chase their dreams, people who aren't the same as everyone else, nor do they want to be. They are the people I am proud to know.

I drink too much, swear too much and generally enjoy it.

If you like what you see and hear, then add me. Always good to have another drinker at the party.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who interest me and challenge me. People who think and have valid points to talk about. People that have been told to shut up one too many times. People who have stopped caring about all the pointless stuff in life. Good People.
