Rich Hardisty is a working class writer and performer who hails from Yorkshire. He has developed shows with Channel 4, VAL, Baby Cow and Eleven pictures. He has also starred in shows for BBC, C4 and NETFLIX. Rich recently came back off a UK national tour with his debut show “SILLY BOY” about his journey with Bipolar disorder.

Rich’s main theme in all of his work is compassion. He gives talks and public speeches where he makes a case for applying the methods he used to help heal himself in treatment centres, to the way we should treat people we disagree with in the culture wars.

And in 2023 he was flown to Oslo and Tuscany to talk at the esteemed ALPINE FELLOWSHIP alongside thought leaders Yuval Noah Harari , Ayishat Akimbe and Esther Perel.
