olaf falafel
bio
A surrealist comedian, children’s book author/illustrator and winner of the Funniest Joke of The Edinburgh Festival.
Olaf is the author and illustrator of several kids books including the flatulent ‘Old MacDonald Heard A Parp’ trilogy, ‘It’s One Giant Leek For Mankind’. Books can be found on Amazon or at your local bookshop.
As well as finding comedic success onstage, Falafel has also enjoyed online fame with his short viral videos. These absurdist movies include a croissant-coiffured talking Donald Trump puppet, slices of truth telling cheese being thrown onto newspapers and the Bee Gees hiding in his beard.
The comedy website Chortle affectionately described Falafel as ‘an idiot’ and when he doesn’t have a microphone in his hand you’ll probably find him with a pencil and pad trying to draw something equally idiotic.
Fun fact, Olaf Falafel headlined our first ever gig! In a 40 seater labour club, tore the roof off and provided a memorable first night. Since then, Olaf has provided another first at The Comedy Crate in bringing his kids tour show to Northampton.
A brilliant act, full of energy, silliness and ultimately bonkers.
