Discovered by Mark Watson on Twitter, Welsh comic Vix Leyton is a natural storyteller with a keen eye for observation, combining warm, whimsical charm with biting wit.
She was a Funny Women awards semi finalist in 2021 and 2022, and her panel show podcast 'The Comedy Arcade' is both an audio success and compelling live show, which tours festivals as well as selling out Edinburgh Fringe rooms. She also acts as the TimeLord’s assistant on Rich Wilson’s Tuned Up Time Machine, a weekly music show on Islington Radio as well as hosting her own ‘Fruit Machine’
Chaotic, irreverent and endearing; her life is pure farce but she is ever pragmatic - if she can be a cautionary tale for others then it isn’t all bad.

Some nice deep thinking jokes I wasn’t expecting amongst a fun flirty act.
