Description
Cal was doing impressions in the playground before he knew it could be a job, appeared on Britain's Got Talent (twice), and is currently touring a show featuring 100 impressions in 60 minutes — and if you catch him at the Edinburgh Fringe, you'll get 101!
Cal is a comedian, impressionist, and pantomime regular from the North East, known for his appearances on Britain's Got Talent and a magnificent touring show that is exactly what it says on the tin.
- How Robin Williams in Mrs Doubtfire made him realise that doing voices could be a job
- Why learning an impression is easier now than ever — and conversely, why finding someone worth impersonating is harder than it's ever been
- Why Jeremy Vine is more fun to impersonate than Piers Morgan, and why mimicking Donald Trump is the exception to every rule
- Why, if you were famous in the 70s, you're famous forever — and why those names still get a bigger reaction than anyone who went viral last week
