Pics & Bio

Based in Frankfurt, Germany, Abigail Paul is a ‘transformative talent’ who ‘lights up the stage’ (★★★★★, Theatre Weekly). A BBC Popcorn Award Nominee for her 2023 Edinburgh debut Involuntary Momslaughter, she followed that success with 2024’s Miss Communication, hailed as “exceptionally well-written and flawlessly executed” (Brighton on the Inside).

Originally from Florida, a subject she has enjoyed making fun of worldwide, Abigail pairs her cerebral and confessional stand-up with her ‘Smart Mouth’ Comic Bites, a digital expansion of her comedy that bridges the gap from stage to page. With excellent acting chops and a lifetime of performance experience, she tours across the US and Europe, from NYC to Barcelona. She holds a BFA in Theatre Performance from the University of Central Florida and a Masters in Mass Communications from the University of Leicester.
