"Trevor Lock is superb!" - THE STAGE
One of the most distinctive and talented comedians on the comedy
circuit, Trevor Lock has been a favourite on the London stand-up
circuit and at the Edinburgh Festival where he has also co-written,
performed and directed four critically acclaimed comic plays. He
also finds time to co-write scripts for television, radio and theatre,
as well as periodically disappearing into the jungles of South America.
A founder member and co-host, along with Dan Antopolski and Tom
Fynn, of cult alternative cabaret "Kool Eddy's" which
ran every Friday night on Charing Cross Road from 97-99. Although
Kool Eddy's must rate as one of the most unlikely comedy venues
of all time it was occasionally extremely successful and the show
was taken to The Edinburgh Festival in 1998, where it played to
sell-out late night audiences at The Pleasance Theatre.
"Way along the road to weird comedy… a show like no other.
Trevor Lock with his own brand of self-indulgent humour makes you
laugh, although the reason usually escapes you." **** THE SCOTSMAN
In 1999 Trevor returned to Edinburgh where he featured at The Gilded
Balloon Theatre in the 'Number One Show' alongside Daniel Kitson
and Andrew Maxwell. The critical success of that show led to many
opportunities for Trevor to broaden his experience and has since
been performing stand-up whenever possible and toured throughout
the UK supporting Stewart Lee of Lee & Herring.
"Trevor Lock once again proves himself to be a wonderful story
teller capable of weaving the unbelievable into a solid hour of
fantasy." EDINBURGH EVENING NEWS
As an actor and writer Trevor has considerable experience, having
worked on a number of fringe productions in the UK and California,
including the lead in Richard Herring's 'Excavating Rita' in London
and at The Edinburgh Festival in 1997. Trevor has also been a regular
cast member in both stage and TV versions of Lee & Herring's
TMWRNJ which ran for 2 series on BBC2. He has appeared in the both
series of Al Murray's SKY ONE sitcom 'Time Gentleman Please' and
more recently in BBC3's 'Brain Candy'.
