Vittorio Angelone
Vittorio Angelone is an Italian-Irish comedian from Belfast. He moved to London in 2014 to train as a classical musician, but then accelerated through the comedy ranks at an anxiety-inducing rate and was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022. Vittorio has built a large following online through podcasts, sketches and stand-up clips amassing millions of views, and in 2023 he went on his debut sell-out tour of the UK & Ireland with his show 'Translations'. Later that year, he returned to the Edinburgh Fringe with 'Who Do You Think You Are? I Am!' It sold out before the festival had even begun and went on to tour to packed theatres across the UK, Ireland and Europe.

★★★★ - The Mail on Sunday

“Come for the caustic wit, stay for a poignancy that never strays into shameless pandering.” - Rolling Stone Magazine
