NICOLA MANTALIOS
After being a regular at local live gigs Nicola started getting free tickets because of her gloriously loud laugh. After trying her hand at stand up herself in 2010 she never looked back.
Nicola was a finalist in the Laughing Horse and the So You Think You’re funny? competitions in 2011 and went on to perform her debut hour “Little Miss Adventure” at the Newcastle Comedy festival in 2014. She was also part of the comedy sketch group “Funny Team” during 2014. In 2016 Nicola performed her shoe “Cult Following” at The Edinburgh Fringe festival, a show about leaving religion, sexuality and identity.
In August 2013 Nicola’s character act “Zoe” was born. Zoe is a dog obsessed oddball who commands an audience with her chaotic, hilarious yet endearing presence.
Performing as both Zoe and herself Nicola has some 12 years experience performing stand up, Mcing, performing at clubs, festivals, family shows and corporate shows around the UK.
