'A shambling ungainly self sabotaging genius'
- Francis Wheen - The Evening StandardEdward proves 'Less is
going to have to be More.'

and critics alike. Developing his comic skills, through hard work, from his initial
success in various comedy competitions into an individual headline act for the years to
come.

New Comedy Awards.
2005: Finalist: Jimmy Carr's Comedy Idol
2006: Finalist: Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year
2006: Semi Finalist: So you think you're funny
"Edward Aczel is
an unforgettable performer. He has no jokes, reads the topic titles from the back of his
hand and has all the delivery skills of the chief accountant awkwardly making a staff
announcement. Yet his is brilliantly funny - and there is absolutely no reason why he
should be, other than the sheer subversion of the idea of a comedian being a confident,
strong personality reeling off sharp jokes. It is impossible to explain, but can reduce a
room to hysterics
.. His set is unlike anything you have ever seen
