Rodney
COMEDIAN & PROFESSIONAL IDIOT
BECKFORD
ABOUT ME
Rodney Beckford is one of the worst comedians you’ve never heard of. Since his escape onto the Brighton comedy open mic circuit he’s appeared in four pub function rooms, two basements and a gazebo in a local park, where he had to be wrestled from the stage by a sugared up bunch of hyperactive 5 year olds.
His past successes have included, collecting 24 tokens from the back of Frosties cereal boxes to get a pair of Tony the Tiger sunglasses. He won a pair of Hulk fists in a Cancer Research charity shop raffle, that say “Hulk Smash” when you bash them against anything. He’s the proud owner of most of the Brownies swimming badges, apart from the ones that involve swimming in your pyjamas to retrieve that rubber brick. He also raised £7.25 on a sponsored 5K run for charity that he didn't run, but shouted encouragement to the participants and after a bit of legal wrangling, eventually got to keep the hi-vis vest they claimed they'd “…loaned him” but in an out of court settlement he ended up paying £7.25 for.
What's He Like?
A self-effacing funny story telling improviser, with a hint of the surreal thrown in for good measure. A quick wit with a mischievous streak running through everything he says and does. His material doesn’t go over your head as much as it smacks you in the face. Family friendly it’s not, but it isn’t rocket science either. Rodney is also an experienced comedy writer, director, serious film maker and an accomplished event and studio photographer.

GET IN ToUCH!
He'll consider hosting shows, MC work, is a great podcast guest, corporate host, will do weddings, funerals, bar mitzvahs, commercials, TV work and almost anything if he gets to tit around and be funny. But be warned his rider includes black grape pop, a fresh fruit bowl and a jumbo box of Toblerone like the ones you get at the airport. Basically, the guy’s always available, he’s more available than Kevin Spacey... just not as handsy.
