Robert worked his way up the stand-up scene, starting in 2004 and found early success as a finalist in the prestigious Hackney Empire competition in 2006. Since then he has gone from strength to strength and in 2010 won the Malcolm Hardee main award at the Edinburgh Festival.

A regular at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe since 2010, his shows regularly impress critics and audiences alike. Robert brought his brilliant comedy-opera InstruMENTAL to Edinburgh in 2017, astounding audiences with the show’s hilarious lyricism and musical ingenuity.

He now is a sought-after act who regularly performs in big clubs, little clubs, those in-between, theatres and festivals around the UK and abroad. He divides his time between comedy in gigs, tours and writing; songs and musicals and talking.

Robert White | Britain’s Got Talent

Robert took part in the 2018 Britain’s Got Talent and made it through to the finals, finishing in second place.

He sailed through his first audition, after his off-beat humour and fantastically rude song about the judges brought a standing ovation. Despite the blatant mocking, the judges all loved it and unanimously voted him through to the next stage. Robert raised the bar in the semi-final  – poking fun at himself and his sexuality before performing an even ruder song about the panel.

His performances throughout were typically chaotic, but hilarious. Robert’s incredible stage presence and fast-paced comedy routines won over the judges and voting public, at every stage of the show.
