British stand-up comedian Prince Abdi started his career as a primary school teacher, teaching in West Hampstead, Kilburn and Brixton. In his spare time, he would deliver a number of stand-up comedy performances for free in a bid to establish his name in the comedy circuit. Eventually, he was able to quit his job as a teacher and pursue comedy full-time. Since becoming a full-time comedian Prince has performed at some of the most established comedy venues in the UK. From Trafalgar Square and the Hackney Empire to the Edinburgh Festival, The Broadway Theatre and The Glee Club, Prince has had audiences in stitches up and down the country. Prince is also fortunate to entertain audiences on a global scale, having also delivered comedy shows in Holland, Kenya, Turkey, America and Canada.
He has performed amongst the likes of Reginald D.Hunter, Jack Whitehall and Stephen K.Amos. Prince has joined his comedy genius with other comedic talents, having toured a number of UK cities alongside Jeff Mirza, Nabil Abdul Rashid and Humza Arshad. In 2013 Prince performed at the Cape Town Comedy Festival and the Laughter Factory comedy tour, giving him the opportunity to perform in both Dubai and Doha. 2015 was also a prominent year for Prince, performing at The Comedy Store in London as part of the Eid special comedy night. He was also fortunate to release a short film, titled My First Fast. This film detailed Prince’s first fast when he was aged just seven and was accompanied by a number of other short films to form the British Muslim Comedy series. Prince has also made a name for himself on television. He has written TV sketches for channels such as the BBC, ITV and Comedy Central as well as appearing in them himself.
His TV credits include The World Stands Up, Laughter Shock, Stand Up Hero, Show Me The Funny, The Wall, Channel 4 Presents, The Jason Lewis Experience and Diary Of A Bad Man. Described as a confident and refreshing comedian it is without surprise that Prince’s upbeat and infectious personality is seen on stages worldwide.
