Featuring

Gavin Webster appearing at this event

Gavin Webster

Newcastle's best export since Brown Ale. Gavin Webster's style of comedy is loud, sharp and controversial - and audiences love him for it. A definite Geordie, Gavin has superb stage presence. His material is bold and provocative yet delivered in a charming manner - which has brought him much praise and attention. 'Funny, clever and as brilliantly observed as you'll find' (The Scotsman) 'Palpably funny' (The Herald) 'His daftness is little short of surreal genius' (The Stage).

Peter Brush appearing at this event

Peter Brush

Peter Brush is a highly distinctive performer and deft writer of finely crafted jokes. He unassumingly takes the stage with his slight bespectacled frame and scruffy hair, before consummately conquering it with an arsenal of razor sharp quirky one-liners and peerlessly original routines, all delivered in an amusingly awkward fashion. A BBC New Comedy Award Finalist 2013 & Harrogate Comedian of the Year 2012, he has also written for BBC Radio 4's 'The News Quiz'. 'An imaginative use of language and obtuse angles of thought that produce distinctive and eclectic gags... his best lines are inspired' (Chortle). “Unique observations and connections that stand-ups crave” (The Guardian).

Howard Read appearing at this event

Howard Read

Explosive comedian from London who is very tall and very silly, with his homages to lesser known fruit and vegetables and snippets of subverted classic hits. He is also an award-winning animator and often uses his talents to great effect in his comedy performances, performing as the Big Howard Little Howard Show for kids. '... one of the highlights of the show... the embodiment of variety in the 21st Century' (The Stage) ' Delivering his material with appeal and modesty he keeps the audiences under his charm...' (Funhouse Comedy).
