Comedian - Will Robbins - Comedy: A Master of Slick Delivery and Social Media Sensation

Will Robbins is a multi-talented comedian, actor, writer, and producer who has taken the internet by storm as one half of the TikTok sensation, The Lovely Boys. Alongside his creative partner Ben Cohen, he has amassed a huge online following with sketches that are wholesome, silly, and brilliantly funny. But beyond the viral fame, Will is also a gifted stand-up comedian with a compelling story and a wonderfully charming stage presence.   

From Somerset to Social Media Stardom

Will grew up in Somerset and has a rare form of dwarfism, an experience that informs his frank, witty, and intelligent stand-up comedy. Before his comedy career took off, he had a varied and random career path that even included touring the US as a driver for Ed Sheeran. He met his comedy partner, Ben Cohen, on the circuit, and the pair began creating sketches while living together during the pandemic lockdown. Their goal was to create wholesome, feel-good content with a slapstick vibe inspired by classics like Airplane and The Naked Gun. The result was The Lovely Boys, whose goofy, feel-good humour has earned them almost 8 million likes on TikTok.   

Comedy Style: Sharp Wit and Silly Slapstick

Will’s comedy operates on two brilliant tracks. With The Lovely Boys, the humour is visual, silly, and feel-good, relying on funny faces and slapstick energy. As a solo stand-up, his style is audience-based and anecdotal. He has a strong, confident stage presence and expertly blends stories about how his height has affected his life with a sharp wit and a sense of foolishness that is consistently funny. He employs call and response and crowd work skillfully, reading the vibe of the room to get his timing just right. As Chortle’s Steve Bennett notes, he has a "slick delivery and old-school jauntiness, with masterful timing".   

Achievements On and Off Screen

The huge success of Comedian Will Robbins comedy duo The Lovely Boys led to them recording their debut series for BBC Radio 4, The Lovely Boys Present: Lovely, joining a prestigious list of acts like The Mighty Boosh and The League of Gentlemen who got their start on the station. As a solo performer, Will has placed third in the Komedia New Comedy Awards and won both the Honk Show and Beat The Frog competitions in 2020.   

His talents extend to writing for major television shows, including Would I Lie to You?, The Last Leg, and Strictly Come Dancing. He has also appeared as an actor on Comedy Central’s Transaction with Jordan Gray and Dave’s Late Night Mash.
