Will Franken is a high-speed, quick-change character comedian that has been likened to a one-man "Monty Python's Flying Circus".

The late, great Robin Williams once said of him: "Will Franken is an id unchained, a master of illusion".

Harry Hill echoed this sentiment when he said, "Will Franken is like nothing I've ever seen before."

Those who have seen him know what to expect. Those who haven't are in for a wild surprise. The Guardian once wrote of him: "Franken's imagination is like Chris Morris: This is Blue Jam with a wilder look in its eyes." Plan on seeing the sacred cows of the fake right wing and the fake left wing demolished, the unquestioned shibboleths of science and technology upended, the moronic dialogue of social media excoriated, and all the idiocy that is our modern, mundane world put through the shredder of his relentless mind.

Franken averages roughly forty to fifty characters per hour. Don't expect polite head chuckles, Franken only aims for the gut laugh. This is what comedy used to be. **** Guardian, ***** Scotsman, ***** Independent, ***** The Times of London, ***** Chortle, "What elevates Franken above your garden-variety comedian is an erudite wit and a highly developed sense of the absurd" -- The New York Times
