TAI CAMPBELL – BIO

BIO

I’m a multi-award winning Director, Writer & Comedian and also a Producer & Editor who’s made content for the BBC, Radio 4, Spotify and Coca-Cola. I use comedy and strong storytelling as a vessel to engage audiences and communicate big ideas while having a strong grasp of the economics of a successful production.

“When you find something funny you remember it, you share it.”

DO THE RIGHT SCENE

I’m also founding member of the UK’s first all Black improv comedy group ‘Do The Right Scene’ and co-run the UK’s longest running POC improv comedy night ‘Special Delivery’ at Hoopla Impro, London Bridge.

I’m not just a performer – I’m an academic who teaches comedy, contributed to a book on comedy and the creator of ‘Culture Flow’ a new approach to comedy for people of diverse backgrounds.

I have an intimate understanding of structure, format and the delivery of comedy, how to use it and how to make it work. – it’s a powerful thing.
