Comedy that's heartfelt, a bit chaotic,
and just self‑aware enough to get away with it.

Live
One of Europe's most in-demand charity auctioneers and event hosts. From Monte Carlo to London — including one unforgettable night that raised over a million euros.
The events
Twenty years, 800-odd events, and each of these got busy enough to need its own website. Same man on all three. He checked.
01 · Awards & corporate
Award ceremonies, gala dinners, product launches and festival stages — from a boardroom of twelve to a crowd of 80,000. Includes TV-style game shows rebuilt around your company, which is more fun than it sounds and it already sounds quite fun.
A room, moments before it all kicks off.
02 · Conferences
One broadcast-trained host holding the whole day together: opening the room, linking sessions, moderating panels with questions he's actually researched, and personally fighting the post-lunch slump with whole-room games and live audience Q&A.
The notes are blank. He knows the notes are blank.
03 · Fundraising
Live auctions and pledge drives that feel like a celebration rather than a hostage situation. Over £10 million raised for good causes across the UK, Europe and the US — including a million euros in one evening in Monaco.
Sold. To the gentleman who blinked.
Not sure which one your event is? Ask him. He'll know. It's usually two of them.
Apps
A satirical political-survival game. You're the newly sworn-in President of a fictional republic, and you have one four-year term to turn it into a dictatorship. Every month a crisis lands on your desk: three bad options, one worse one, and a timer.
Coming soon · iOS & Android in review · Steam wishlist on the way
Every president, party, court and country in the game is fictional. Any resemblance to persons living, indicted or posting is the fault of the opposition.

Business
Before the stage, and occasionally during it, Kevin built companies from nothing and then sold them to people who seemed pleased about it. He now runs Seriously Funny Productions, which is the least ironic company name he's ever had, and two more businesses he's keeping.
06 · Fantasy Footballer
Personalised football comic books where the child is the hero, in their own club's kit, scoring the goal that wins it. Name, hair, skin tone and eyes all match. Every page is pencilled, inked and coloured by real illustrators. No AI, which these days is practically a party trick.
07 · Generosity Works
Fundraising strategy and auction software for charity galas, balls and dinners. Kevin designs the whole evening to get the money out of it, then stands on stage and does exactly that. The platform runs the silent auction, the live pledges and the Gift Aid, and takes no cut of what's raised.
Approachable. Within reason.
About
Kevin Durham writes, directs and performs comedy about people trying their best and making it considerably worse. His feature film B‑Movie is streaming on Amazon Prime. His animated pilot Time Family went into consideration with ViacomCBS. His characters are crude, his stories are warm, and he remains at a loss to explain either.
When he isn't writing or directing, he's on stage hosting galas and charity auctions across Europe — where a particular mix of warmth and menace has separated very rich people from very large sums of money, on purpose, for good causes.

Room 001
Heartfelt stories. Crude jokes. Both at once, ideally in the same sentence.
An out-of-work TV writer is talked into making a feature film by his best friend, who funds it — and cuts every corner in existence. Ten supporting actors, thirty extras, six locations, and sheer stubbornness.
A wonderfully dysfunctional family whose domestic squabbles happen to span centuries — led by eccentric inventor William, his brash unfiltered wife Pauline, and a sentient glowing AI block named Cubey. A pit stop in 1945 accidentally starts World War III. Families, eh.
A down-on-his-luck divorced father and wedding toastmaster buys a mysterious sketch book from an eccentric antique dealer, and his luck goes from bad to considerably worse. Heartwarming. Eventually.
My Silent Idiot. Roxy. The Wedding Destroyer. Hate Island. You will be told when it is time.
Room 002
Comedy that's heartfelt, a bit chaotic, and just self‑aware enough to get away with it.
Feature film on Amazon Prime. An animated pilot that went into consideration with ViacomCBS. A web series about a 40‑something trying and mostly failing to become the next MrBeast. All directed by the same man, who is available.
Two of his, both comedies, one of which is about Doctor Who and is not our fault.
Room 003
Clueless presenter. Overconfident salesman. Well‑meaning idiot. Fully committed to all three.
Kevin performs the parts he writes, which saves an enormous amount of casting time and at least one difficult conversation. Character comedy, presenting, and hosting — on screen and in front of very large rooms.
Showreels are being recut. In the meantime, the work is next door.
Room 005
One of Europe's most engaging charity auctioneers. Can turn a bid into a standing ovation.
From Monte Carlo to London: humour, warmth and high-energy hosting that has helped charities smash fundraising records — including one unforgettable night raising over one million euros. Whether the lot is a luxury getaway, a once-in-a-lifetime experience, or the charity's own CEO, the room comes to life and the bids keep flowing.
Room 006
The podcast has its own section. It insisted.
Room 007
Built and sold five businesses. This room is legally required to be boring. It is failing.
Owner of Seriously Funny Productions, and head of Football Comics — personalised football comic books for footie fans of all ages. Previous ventures include an event management business, a photography agency, a quick‑flip property company, a comedy publication and a game show business. All built. All sold. None haunted.
Room 008
Have a question? A project? A wedding that needs destroying?
There is a form. It is downstairs, it is short, and it goes straight to him. He reads everything, replies to most things, and has never once sold anyone's details to anybody.
