Highly regarded by his peers on the circuit - he's shaven-headed, topical, good, and nothing to do with Bob!
Evening Standard
Roger Monkhouse’s comedy has been described as topical, quirky, observational, sharp but above all, hilarious. On stage he can be charming but watch out if you are in his front row.
He has been a consistent and popular comedian at the London Comedy Store’s The Edge. This is a weekly night at the club and it’s been running for over 30 years. At The Edge Roger Monkhouse has followed in the footsteps of comedy geniuses such as Eddie Izzard, Bill Bailey, Jo Brand and also Jimmy Carr.
Roger Monkhouse is a consummate stand-up who employs a deadly combination of charm and menace. He exerts a masterful control over any audience. As a seasoned corporate host he improvises freely with the crowd.
He is nonetheless, distinguished as a comic by the intelligence of his material and his keen eye for a fine phrase. Roger’s easy observational style is spiked by the signal flares of an accomplished gag writer.
Since his debut in 1990 Roger Monkhouse has been a regular performer at The Comedy Store and also The Glee Clubs.
He has performed at almost all the major comedy clubs around the UK and internationally. In 2016 he was voted Best Compere by fellow comics.
Roger is also a regular guest on GB News’ Headliners, and was recently featured on Unsafe Spaces on BBC Radio 4.
He is a gifted natural, with the years of experience to know how to handle a crowd. One of the consummate professionals of the stand-up circuit”
