Andrew Maxwell returns to axis. Maxwell recently won the Channel 4 reality show 'Kings of Comedy' – the prize being a pilot show with Endemol/ Channel 4 which is currently in production. Renowned for his sharp, fast paced streams of consciousness and well observed retort, Maxwell builds the crowd by challenging the controversial or taboo. He engages any audience he faces with a myriad of subjects and lures them into his riotous world.

 

Dubliner, Maxwell was raised in Kilbarrack in the Northside of Dublin, and as one of the few Protestant families in the area, and the only ones who housed African students on a regular basis, the Maxwells were well versed in religion and international politics and this influence is apparent in Andy's comic conjecture, leading him to take to the stage aged 18 for the first time at a local club run by Ardal O'Hanlon.
