Daniel Sloss

Daniel Sloss was born on September 11, 1990, in Kingston upon Thames, England, and moved with his family to Scotland at a young age. A comedian, actor, and writer, he began making waves as a teenager, performing solo shows in Edinburgh, and at an early age becoming the youngest comedian to have a solo season in London’s West End. His career has spanned stand-up tours, television appearances, and widely viewed specials. Two of his Netflix specials, DARK and Jigsaw, released concurrently, significantly boosted his profile internationally. Sloss frequently tackles difficult and controversial subjects—relationships, identity, emotional struggle—blending humor with introspection. Beyond his streaming specials, he has performed solo shows across festival stages, theaters, and arenas, continuously producing new material. His performance X has been noted for its bold social commentary, especially around masculinity and sexual violence. He has toured in over fifty countries, earning a reputation for honest, provocative, and deeply personal comedy. Privately, Sloss is married, has two children, and resides in Scotland. His style combines sharp wit, emotional vulnerability, and an ability to provoke both laughter and thought—using comedy to explore challenging aspects of the human condition rather than to avoid them.
