Biography
Les Keen is the hardest working (and funniest) man in comedy. Even if you don’t know his face, you’ll have laughed at his sharp gags and catchphrases, think “no likey, no lighty”.
While crafting tight sketches, routines and gags for top TV talent, Les is also the master of unscripted stand-up. His live shows are unforgettable, and no two gigs are ever the same.
With more than 30,000 followers on Instagram and TikTok, Les has amassed 40million social media hits in the past year from a standing start.
Les started his working life as a Leeds shoe salesman, and he’s been putting his foot in it ever since. And despite his youthful good looks, he is not actually a racing car driver.
Credits
IMDB gives Les writing credits for more than 516 hours of primetime TV shows…and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. If you watched all the shows Les has written back-to-back you would be solidly glued to the TV for more than twenty-one days.
He is also a documentary maker, producer, creator and performer. And that’s before you get to his radio and stage work. On top of his decades of experience creating and shaping hit TV comedy shows, Les runs North London’s biggest cabaret night out, the Variety Boutique.
