In the earlier days (i.e. in the early 2020s comedians were expected to be performing for years in the UK before being invited onto an audience on TV and then selling out arena shows. It's not simple at present. One form of art that can still be performed live is comedy, but there won't soon be any arena performances. But there is a Bristol comedian has found a global audience through a the social media lockdown. Finding internet fame is not something that Abi Clarke was hoping to achieve. The 24-year-old who lives in Hen bury with her parents, began creating online videos "to build a following of like-minded individuals who would appreciate my stand-up comedy. "I was performing a lot in Devon to males in their 50s that weren't as hot on my Love Island Sims and Twilight references, so it was the right time to search online for others who were young and would enjoy my stand-up comedy." Abi, who lives in Henbury with her parents, has continued to post her videos on Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok. She finds inspiration from a variety of sources, such as conversations with strangers, the chatroom, and also writing notes on her smartphone.
