Toussaint Douglass is one of comedy’s most exciting and talked about new names and is already making serious waves across the industry. His innovative brand of stand up mixes the personal with the political, whilst adding a uniquely absurdist slant to brilliant comic effect. In 2018 he burst onto the circuit gigging at top venues such as The Comedy Store, Top Secret Comedy Club, Banana Cabaret, Backyard Comedy Club, The Glee Clubs, Frog & Bucket, Komedia Brighton & Up The Creek and achieved rave reviews for his outstanding performances at several major UK comedy competitions.

Omar Badawy was the winner of So You Think You're Funny? 2021

One of those rare performers - a true original! Genuinely versatile, his talents range from that of a fine singer/songwriter in styles ranging from chart-orientated tracks to the classiest of jazz standards, via authentic bossa nova, to that of pianist, guitarist, world class jazz singer, as well as his unique standing as 'vocal trumpeter, trombonist and clarinettist!'. On top of all this he is also a sophisticated and witty comedian who stars on the London alternative comedy circuit.

Dave Award winner, triple Perrier Award nominee and BBC New Comedy award winner, Dan Antopolski is one of the fastest rising stars in comedy. With his latest Edinburgh show Silent But Deadly receiving massive praise from The Guardian, The Observer, Chortle and many more, his surreal comic mind, coupled with a mastery of the English language, is dazzling audiences across the UK.
