Adam Greene

Picture a comedian who can turn the mundane art of self-care into comedy gold, who transforms everyday observations into punchlines so sharp they could write themselves onto BBC Radio 4. That's Adam Greene, a multi award-nominated stand-up whose wit has earned him a spot on the writing team for The News Quiz, where his razor-sharp insights help skewer the week's headlines with surgical precision.

A veteran of the circuit since 2016, Adam's rapid ascent saw him reach the finals of the Piccadilly New Act of the Year competition and snag runner-up at Balham New Act—all while developing a reputation for effortlessly relatable humour that keeps audiences hanging on every word. Bruce Dessau, the comedy critic's critic, tagged him as "one to keep tabs on," and Edinburgh Fringe-goers have done exactly that across three consecutive years of sell-out shows, including 2024's Healthy Beast.

When he's not crafting BBC-worthy material, Adam co-hosts The Hero Complex Podcast, dissecting pop culture with fellow comics Hugh Peacocke and Patrick Brusnahan. His style? High-energy improvisation meets sharp observational wit, delivered with the kind of easy-going charm that makes even his edgiest material feel like a chat with your funniest mate. A favourite on the Comedy Boat since 2024, Adam brings that perfect blend of intelligence and irreverence that keeps Rum Monkey audiences coming back for more.
