Hilarity Bites – Daniel Downie, Dominic Woodward and Host Aaron Twitchen

Aaron Twitchen is a stand up, actor, aerialist, and living stereotype.

As well as featuring on BBC Radio 4, he was listed in Metro’s top 5 RomComs and has provided tour support for Luisa Omielan. He has also been releasing his sketch series, DiscoBlonde, in weekly instalments, and in its first six weeks it has enjoyed upwards of eighteen thousand views.

Away from comedy, Aaron has supported bands at music festivals, and is an accomplished stage actor and improviser. Unusually, he is also a trained circus act, concentrating particularly on aerial skills and trapeze work, which has allowed him to tour circus theatres throughout the country and teach young people.

Daniel Downie is an award winning Scottish comedian who has brought several shows to the Edinburgh Fringe. His 2022 sell out show about Mary Queen of Scots ‘There’s Something About Mary’ was described as ‘brilliant’ and a ‘must see’ by the Scotsman.

Based in Edinburgh Daniel hosts the ‘Mountebank Comedy Walk of Edinburgh’ a comedy walking tour of the city that is the number one rated tour of the city on TripAdvisor and made Tripadvisor’s ‘Top 10 Things to do in the UK’ in 2022.

A Masters student in Scottish history, Daniel’s comedy is about the ridiculous nature of Scottish history and the funny side of Scottish culture, language, weather – all things Scottish basically!

Dominic Woodward started comedy young and wide eyed back in 2001, and with nearly two decades experience on the UK circuit he’s a safe pair of hands. He’s cheeky, charming, full of energy and hilarious.

Now married with a mortgage, Dominic weaves side-splitting stories about his life and tells belly aching jokes that hit the mark with all audiences. There’s a naughty twinkle in his eyes but his act is warm, personal and inoffensive.
