OM FORESTILLINGEN
''My dream has always been to be a professional comedian and let me tell you, it's hard. From living in a car and under a staircase, to becoming a male escort, and now being Portugal's biggest young international comedy star: this is the story of how I ended up here, doing this show. A story about relentless optimism and following your dreams, even when everything is against you.''
André
studied at the acclaimed drama school Escola Professional de Teatro de Cascais
from the age of 15, which lead to TV and feature film work in his home country
of Portugal. Having then discovered stand-up comedy, André moved to the UK for
5 years until Brexit, when he left to perform comedy around the world. He has
toured all over the globe, including multiple countries around Europe, Dubai
and Australia where he recently performed at the Melbourne International Comedy
Festival and picked up the “Best International New Act” Award.
In 2023
André returned to the UK where he made history by being the first ever
Portuguese comedian to perform a solo show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
His debut show - ‘What If’ was critically acclaimed, having received a number
of 5 star reviews and also made the list of the funniest jokes of the 2023
Fringe by The Telegraph.
André is
also the creator and co-star of the popular phenomenon Comedy Therapy, a live
format that brings together comedy and mental health. The live show became a
podcast, quickly sky-rocketing to the number 3 podcast in Portugal. André
has, so far, supported Jim Gaffigan, Jim Jefferies, Alan Carr, Russell Peters
and TJ Miller on tour around the World.
