Abi Clarke

In the past, i.e. In the early 2020s, comedians were expected to be performing for years in the UK before being invited onto television panels and selling out arena tours. It's not so easy at the moment. One art form that can be performed live in the future is comedy, however there won't soon be any arena tour. However, one Bristol comedian has a huge following via social media lockdown. Abi Clarke did not set up to become an online celebrity. She is a 24-year-old woman living in Hen bury, with her parents, started making online videos "to build a following of people who be interested in my stand-up comic. "I performed a variety of shows in the depths of Devon to men who were in their 50s and weren't so enthusiastic about my Love Island, Sims and Twilight references so I went online with the intention of meeting other young women who were able to relate to me." Abi has since appeared at Lakota Gardens, as restrictions on lockdowns have eased however she is still posting her videos on Instagram, Twitter and Tik Tok (where she recently surpassed the 500,000 mark), finding the inspiration she needs from sources as diverse as her work in the cafe, conversations with a stranger or a girls' group chat. She also writes everything down on her smartphone.
