Topics:
  • Comedy

Actor, writer, improviser, workshop leader and after dinner and keynote speaker, NEIL MULLARKEY is founder-member of the Comedy Store Players, Britain's top improvisation troupe and has appeared in two Austin Powers movies.  He was educated at Cambridge University where he studied Economics, Social and Political Sciences and was President of the Cambridge Footlights, directing their pantomime and revue and touring the UK and Australia.

Television, Radio & Film

Neil’s television, radio, film and theatre credits are numerous including the likes of Whose Line is it Anyway, Just a Minute, I’m Sorry I haven’t a Clue,  The News Quiz, Quote…Unquote and Loose Ends to name but a few.   He wrote and presented the documentary Ten Years of the Comedy Store Players.

L-Vo - the Alternative Motivational Guru

Neil’s latest one-man show Don’t Be Needy Be Succeedy has been touring the UK & Ireland to great acclaim and won the Fringe Report Award for Best Satire.   In it Neil plays L. Vaughan Spencer, alternative Life Coach, Self-Help Guru and Gangsta Motivator.   Also known as L-Vo, the pony-tailed guru has been described as "The Tom Peters for the Britney generation" and "The Enimem of personal self-enhancement".  L-Vo’s light hearted send-up is everything required to entertain, motivate, inspire and delight the corporate audience.

Corporate Improvisation Workshops

Neil also runs interactive workshops, using the technique of theatre improvisation to inspire people to embrace their creativity and enhance their communication skills.

Client Comments

“Neil, has  spoken at 4 major conferences in the last 10 months in the guise of L. Vaughan Spencer and on each occasion his act has been extremely well received by different audiences ranging from junior management to executive level colleagues, both male and female. The act is a hilarious antidote to a day of serious corporate messages and yet, ironically, potentially aligned to some of those messages; e.g. pushing personal performance. Neil is a highly polished and professional Entertainer and as L. Vaughan Spencer he delivers the requisite "wow" factor often missing in after dinner speakers. I have no hesitation in recommending him.”

“We all feel succeederised and  the spirit of L-Vo will live long in our hearts as was evident by the ladies from marketing singing the "Succeedy-Succeedy" anthem on the coach home. Steve is nursing his woundsand we have recommended your book "chicken nuggets for the soul" to him and will be providing him some motivational muffins to improve his newly acquired L-oser status. A big thank you from me and all the folks here whohave been singing your praises since the event.”
 DIRECT LINE

"Neil (as L-Vo) did a fantastic job for us in energising and entertaining the Top 100 Executives in our business with a quick witted and satirical view on what it takes to be an effective leader. He was brilliant at quickly incorporating relevant Unilever content into his act and had us all in stitches with his pointed humour. I would thoroughly recommend using him for any occasion where the objective is to provoke and entertain."
