Eddie Izzard

Suzy Eddie Izzard is one of the most recognised figures in international comedy, celebrated for a unique performance style that blends whimsical monologues with stream-of-consciousness observational humour. From early beginnings as a street performer, her career evolved into sell-out tours and critically acclaimed specials such as Dress to Kill, for which she earned two Primetime Emmy Awards. A linguistic pioneer, she has achieved the remarkable feat of performing stand-up in French, German, Spanish, Arabic, and Russian. Her versatility extends to the stage and screen, with a diverse portfolio that includes roles in Ocean’s Twelve, Valkyrie, and the Tony-nominated Broadway production of A Day in the Death of Joe Egg. Beyond the arts, her tireless commitment to social causes and humanitarian effort is unparalleled. She famously completed 43 marathons in 51 days for Sport Relief and later ran 27 marathons in 27 days across South Africa to honour the legacy of Nelson Mandela, raising millions for charity. As a high-profile Unicef ambassador and a vocal campaigner for equality and European cooperation, she frequently engages with complex political and social issues. More recently, she has continued her public service through involvement with the Labour Party and has performed her latest show, Wunderbar, to global audiences. Audiences book her for her extraordinary ability to blend humour with profound messages on resilience and personal identity. Her presentations offer a compelling look at overcoming mental barriers and achieving ambitious goals through sheer determination and an unwavering belief in human potential. On stage, Eddie Izzard is best known for talks on Comedy, Activism, Performance, Motivation and Diversity & Inclusion. Audiences leave with a clear, practical view of the subject rather than a generic overview — every keynote is shaped around the brief and the room. Their work resonates with leaders across Arts & Culture, Charity & Non-Profit, Comedy and Motivational Speaking, where the themes translate directly into team decisions, customer experience and growth strategy. Eddie Izzard is regularly booked for Performers and Entertainer and Motivational Speaker, adapting tone, length and format to suit the event — from a 20-minute opener to a full conference keynote with Q&A. Based in UK, Eddie Izzard travels internationally for engagements and can present in French, German, Spanish, Russian and Arabic as well as English.
