Comedy Arcade Live: Leicester Comedy Festival 2023 – The Big Difference, Leicester, 2023
Canadian comedian Leslie Ewing Burgesse made a guest appearance for Live @ Limehouse 3 that I saw in October 2019. Her purple hair and full on presence made her very engaging with the late-night crowd and her points of view comparing the UK and Canada were very direct and extremely funny.
In February 2020, Burgesse co-compered the Flamingo Sparks comedy night with Vix Leyton. They made an engaging and funny double act introducing the comedians with enthusiasm and vigour.
Burgesse was a great guest for Vix Leyton’s Comedy Roulette – a show were topics are talked about based on the randomness of balls being generated from a machine. Burgesse was lively, funny and contributed well to the show.
In February 2023, Comedy Arcade Live took place at the Leicester Comedy Festival with host Vix Leyton assisted by Burgesse and guests Ishi Khan, Rich Wilson, Alexander Bennett and Garrett Millerick.
