Addison Cresswell (28 June 1960 – 23 December 2013) was a British comedy talent agent and producer.[2]
He was notable for finding many stand-up "alternative" comedians at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and at other venues,[3] promoting them and finding spots for them on television and radio over a 30-year period from the 1980s.[1] He has been called "one of the most influential people in British comedy",[4] "arguably the most powerful man in UK comedy" for two decades[5] and "the Darth Vader of the Fringe".[5]
