Izzard appeared in 1995 as the title character in Christopher Marlowe's groundbreaking "Edward II".
She returned to the West End the next year with her second one-man show, Eddie Izzard: Unrepeatable (1994), and soon thereafter made her West End debut in a drama, as the lead in the world premiere of David Mamet's "The Cryptogram" with Lindsay Duncan her success led to her second starring role, in "900 Oneonta". With Eddie Izzard: Live at the Ambassadors (1993), she was nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award (outstanding achievement) and won her first British Comedy Award for top stand-up comedian. After that, she drew bigger and bigger audiences, and in 1993 hired the Ambassadors Theatre in London's West End for the first of many successful one-man shows. Izzard worked as a street performer and in smaller comedy venues throughout the mid-to-late 1980s her big break came when she appeared in Hysteria III, a 1991 AIDS fundraiser held at the London Palladium, and did her now-famous "Raised by wolves" sketch.
