Headliner

Vidura BR is a Sri Lankan comedian, writer, and director based in London, via Malaysia and Berlin. His dead-pan style puts audiences at ease while challenging conventional wisdom with a unique tone that is often irreverent, at times poignant, and always hysterical. His debut show Monsoon Season garnered much online attention and critical acclaim, and was selected for syndication on Amazon Prime Video following its initial release. His accolades as a comedian include being a finalist for Leicester Square New Act of the Year, Berlin Best New Comedian, and 2Northdown New Act Competition.
