Alex Horne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alex Horne (born 10 September 1978) is a British comedian. His act is a blend of sharp one-liners, sketches, quick-fire crowd engagement, puns and pseudo-surreal babbling.
Horne was educated at Lancing College (Fields House, 1991-1996).
Horne first appeared at the Edinburgh festival in 2000 with his show, "How To Avoid Huge Ships". His 2003 Edinburgh show, "Making Fish Laugh" was nominated for a Perrier newcomer award. In 2004 he won a Chortle Award for Best Breakthrough Act. His latest shows have been "When In Rome" and "Every Body Talks".
Horne toured Roman towns of the UK with his "When In Rome" show in early 2006, joined by comedian Tim Key. The show featured unusually extensive use of Microsoft PowerPoint for a comic act.
