Wes Defoe

Hailing from Essex, Wes’s sheltered religious upbringing has bestowed upon him a refreshingly unconventional lens through which he views the world, a perspective he masterfully weaves into his comedic performances.

Wes stands out in the comedy scene with his remarkable ability to blend observational humour, immersive storytelling, and dramatic physicality.

His talent has earned him several accolades and recognitions. He’s reached the final in many comedy contests, such as Comedy Tonight’s New Act of the Year competition, Comedy Virgin’s INGTE 2023 & well and has won the “Last Rats” Big Rat Grand Final.

 

He also reached the finals in the “Whole Lotta Comedy” competition in 2022.

 

Wes’s performances fearlessly delve into a wide array of topics, including UK culture, race, identity, relationships, school memories and irrational fears of old ladies at night!
