Jordan Brookes
Welsh Unsigned Stand Up Finalist 2011 and winner in 2012. 'Brookes has clearly spent time meticulously planning the theatrics, the jokes, the absurdity, and the outbursts to a beat and shows all the signs of a highly skilled comedy writer and performer' (www.chaplinmoustachecomedy.co.uk) '... the best joke of the night...' (Loaded Magazine) 'His role as an outsider was thoughtfully created and brilliantly executed' (South Wales Echo) 'Had it not been for his nomination for a Comedians' Choice award, Jordan might have flown under the radar completely this Fringe. And that would have been a shame, as he deserves recognition for doing something a little different with the art form... with performance skills to spare and an innovative approach running through this assured debut like lettering in seaside rock' (Chortle).

Kiri Pritchard-McLean
With a charming stage manner coupled with a deft, quick wit it's easy to see why Nottingham Comedy Festival named Welsh comic Kiri Pritchard-McLean their Breakout Act Of The Year. 'She balances affection with an acute eye for the ridiculous to bring you a stand up set of well delivered, increasingly funny anecdotes... definitely one to watch' (Three Weeks) 'Kiri was by far the funniest and most quick witted, one to look out for in the future' (Leicester Mercury). Kiri Pritchard-McLean featured in Ents24's 20 Hardest Working Comedians of 2018 list.
