Will Owen
Will Owen finds the funny in loneliness, identity, and the small absurdities of everyday life. His sharp observational writing and clean timing draw a room together, building genuine warmth that lingers long after the last laugh. Audiences leave feeling lighter, like they've spent an hour in really good company.
Will Owen is a stand-up comedian based in the UK whose comedy draws on sharp observational writing and a natural ability to connect with a room.
His debut Edinburgh Fringe show, "Like, Nobody's Watching," earned five-star reviews and a place on the British Comedy Guide's Best Reviewed Shows list before selling out at Soho Theatre. He followed that with a second Fringe show, "Looking Fab At Fifty," and in 2022 took the title of Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian of the Year.
Will's comedy works because it feels both personal and universal. He writes with precision, finding the funny in loneliness, identity, and the small absurdities of everyday life. His timing is clean, his material is well-crafted, and he has the kind of stage presence that makes a room feel like it's in on the joke together. He has toured in support of Ania Magliano and Rhys Nicholson, holding his own in front of large, varied audiences.
Audiences leave Will's sets feeling lighter. His comedy doesn't punch down or rely on shock. Instead, it builds a warmth in the room that lingers, leaving people with the sense that they've spent an hour in genuinely good company.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
