Sam Nicoresti is a writer and performer from Birmingham, UK (“uhk”).

He is known for his blending of stand-up, surreal theatre, film and music to create one-person shows that explore consciousness, identity, and cosmic horror.

“He straddles the genres like a modern-day Colossus of Rhodes.”

His first show Bedtime was a midnight cult-hit at Edinburgh Fringe 2018. In 2019 he followed it up with UFO, a show about trans-dimensional loneliness which transferred to Soho Theatre in 2021.

In December of that year he won the Leicester Square New Comedian of the Year 2021 competition.

“Fizzing with ideas and great jokes, with a unique angle on every topic he tackled”

Steve Bennett, chortle.com

Along with ‘friend’ Tom Burgess he is one half of far-brow comedy dyad Sam & Tom, Sketch Off! Finalists 2018.

“Delightfully unusual… fast establishing a stellar reputation”

Stu Black, The Skinny

He is also an indispensable member of the Weirdos comedy group, and cult comedy anti-competition The Glang Show.

“Joyful, wonderful fun”

The Guardian

He is currently developing a radio adaptation of his Soho Theatre show, a podcast on gardening, and a new live work.

“Nicoresti is an auteur”.

Si Hawkins, Fest

He lives in North London and is also a film-maker, musician and friend to cats.

“A stylish, idiosyncratic solo stand-up with a vivid imagination… a fluidity to his delivery and, dare I say it, even a touch of the young Daniel Kitson about him.”

Bruce Dessau, Beyond the Joke
