Daliso Chaponda Daliso Chaponda
Date Of Birth: 1979

Malawian Daliso Chaponda began his comedy career in Canada in 2001, quickly building to his first one-man show, Feed This Black Man. His 2004 show Don’t Let Them Deport Me was a thinly-disguised plea to have his Canadian visa extended . However, the ploy failed - but not before he performed at the Just For Laughs Festival in Montreal in 2005.

He then moved to South Africa, where he continued to work as a comedy writer and performer. More recently he has moved to the UK, where he has established himself on the Jongleurs circuit of largish clubs. In 2007, he appeared in the Big Value shows at the Edinburg Fringe.

In addition to stand-up, Chaponda is also a fiction writer. In 2002 he was a finalist in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest and in 2005 he was shortlisted for the P&E Award for online writing.
