Stiff & Kitsch: Bricking It

Musical Comedy Award winners 2018 sing about everything keeping them awake at night: tax, wooden cutlery and the consequences of last night's eight double G&Ts. Each. From the creators of the hit show, Adele Is Younger Than Us, Stiff and Kitsch: Bricking It is a story of life's favourite fears, told through one big night out and one miserable morning after. Everyone's scared of something, but there's safety in numbers: maybe we'll be braver together. 'Perfectly executed... left the audience in stitches' (Comedy.co.uk). As seen on BBC Three.

Tom Mayhew: I, Tom Mayhew

Tom Mayhew (BBC New Comedy Award semi-finalist 2018) was unemployed for three years from the age of 18. This is a story of rejections, the JobCentre, being working class, and fighting for your place in the world. With lots of jokes. This show explores what its really like for someone in their twenties in 2019. While some seem to think we have it all, the reality is that many of us can't afford to move out of our parents' place. 'His content is from the heart; spellbinding, raw and telling... a genuine joy to watch' (Kate Copstick).

Laura Lexx: Knee Jerk

Star of Live at the Apollo, Laura Lexx is a 'bouncy, bubbly stand up star' (Telegraph) shining a hilarious light on how hard it is to be a good person these days. Can you change the world without offending anyone? Her sell-out 2018 show Trying was 'a masterpiece' ***** (VoiceMag.uk) and earned her a prestigious Comedian's Choice Award. Now, Lexx takes on society's big issues... but come for jokes, not answers. It's sure to be 'stomach-achingly funny' **** (Entertainment-Focus.com) and 'another skilfully-constructed hour from an underrated performer' **** (Fest). Early booking recommended.

Failed 80s diva and Dorking's most successful pub singer Yasmine Day boldly attempts to revive her flagging career with a last ditch concert extravaganza. Expect unique renditions of 80s power ballads, world-famous originals you've never heard of and (definitely true) celebrity anecdotes. Debut character comedy from Jay Bennett. Finalist: London Cabaret Awards; nominated: Best Comedy Event (Buxton Fringe). As seen on BBC 3.

Sam Nicoresti: UFO

In 1998, Sam Nicoresti was abducted by aliens. Now he's ready to reveal the beans and spill the truth in his debut show about space, alienation and dimensional string theory. Given the state of the world (ie very good), it’s natural for humanity to be content with knowing in space there is no one to hear our screams. But are we truly alone? A smuggled tape, mysterious light and charred manuscript on interdimensional filing cabinets reveal the truth. Free buffet. No government agents. Half of Sam & Tom (Sketch Off! Finalists 2018). 'Dangerously deranged' ***** (MumbleComedy.net).
