Dharmander Singh

Dharmander Singh was born in Birmingham in the mid 70's as a first generation British Asian. He started in theatre from a young age and graduated to stand up comedy in his late 20's. He successfully ran the Birmingham comedy club "Custard Balti".

In 2008, Dharmander did an early "Brexit" and moved to Germany. Based in Berlin, he has been entertaining crowds as compere and solo artist from Amman to Zurich for over 20 years. He supported Ardal O'Hanlon, Judah Friedlander as well as Steve-O and performed with Jeff Ross.

A comedy festival regular, Dharmander has performed at Edinburgh Fringe and Birmingham Comedy Festival with his acclaimed one-man show "Bollywood and Birmingham to Berlin and 
Brexit". This production has since been a vital part of Edinburgh Fringe, Utrecht International Comedy Festival and Brighton Fringe for many years. It travels through European countries such as Austria, Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Estonia and Italy. Dharmander’s comedy and storytelling also made its journey to the Arabian Peninsula like Jordan, Oman and The United Arab Emirates.

His style of comedy has been described as light-hearted, captivating, warm, entertaining and energetic with smatterings of social and political commentary. He has appeared on BBC radio on several occasions and featured in the Scottish BAFTA winning film "Crying with Laughter".

Dharmander is also the regular compere and co-promoter of the popular comedy club “Cosmic Comedy Berlin”. Cosmic Comedy Berlin is the first English-speaking comedy clubs in Berlin that produces sell-out shows up to three times a week.
