Biography
Winner of 2022’s Britain’s Got Talent, London-born stand-up comedian Axel Blake is a rising star. Despite having a subconscious appreciation for comedy as a class clown in school, it wasn’t until Axel attended his first comedy show at Hackney Empire back in 2017 that he decided to embark on the idea of becoming a comedian himself.
Axel was somewhat of a natural and rose relatively quickly within London’s underground comedy scene. While it kept him busy being able to gig most weekends, it wasn’t until Axel began sharing his life and comedy on social media that he started to build a real fanbase. As an early adopter of Snapchat, he built a loyal base of followers who engaged with online sketches, mini-shows such as Dear Dr. Axel, and his overall daily shenanigans.
Since winning BGT, Axel has toured the UK and beyond with countless sold-out dates across his ‘In Style’ tour. Most notably selling out Hammersmith’s Eventim Apollo. He has also featured on ITV’s The Stand Up Sketch Show, The Royal Variety Performance (2022), Don’t Hate The Playaz, and Comedy Central Live.
