He studied at École Internationale de Théâtre Jacques Lecoq in Paris & Theatre Arts at Middlesex University in London, so he can recite Shakespeare in two languages, but he can’t change a tyre.
Eric has performed stand up around the world (Unless you’re a Flat Earther and then, get off this website and watch literally any video from the International Space Station. Here, let me help you: Live from the ISS

And co-starred in motion picture Moonwalkers (alongside Rupert Grint and Ron Perlman), in Luc Besson’s film Valerian & The City of a Thousand Planets and his upcoming one, Anna, starring Helen Mirren, Cillian Murphy & more).
REVIEWS
“Delightfully Weird.” – TIME OUT
“Provides a constant frisson of energy with sparky, thoughts about international traits, learning foreign languages and even touching on mental illness with his loose, animated style.” – CHORTLE
“He makes it look so easy but this is a man with very funny bones. Definitely one to catch.” – DAILY EXPRESS
“Quirky with an eye for the absurd and a couple of near-Izzardian flourishes… Energy is such that it’s almost osmotic.” – THE STAGE
