Stand Up For The Weekend: Andrew Bird, Robert White, Sally-Anne Hayward
In conjunction with the Hen & Chicken, The Comedy Box is offering a superb Christmas Comedy and Dining experience during the weekend shows in December. You can enjoy a sumptious 2 course Christmas dinner (including coffee and mince pies) plus a 2 hour comedy show featuring three of the best acts on the UK comedy circuit.
For £32.00 per head your party will dine in a designated area in the bar/restaurant downstairs (or you can book the private Greville Room at the rear of the premises if you have a very large party - capacity 36 diners), then once your party has finished dining you will be directed to the comedy venue on the first floor where your party will be sat together to enjoy two hours of high grade stand-up (including interval).
Tickets must be purchased in advance via www.thecomedybox.co.uk. Once you have made your booking you will be contacted by the Hen & Chicken to discuss your menu options.
Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
Andrew Bird
Watching The Young Ones with his brothers as an eight year old, at two in the morning on Comic Relief, he realised then that he wanted to be funny in some way. Relaxed and improvisatory, Andrew Bird is one of those rare comedians who makes friends with his audiences in an instant with his engaging mix of childhood stories and more recent anecdotes.
He has supported Rhod Gilbert, Lee Hurst and Michael McIntyre as well as performing internationally.
'Superb... the exciting rising star' (Time Out)
'A natural comedian' (The Stage)
'Beautifully observed and insightful... not only an entertaining story but a very funny hour of fine stand-up' (Chortle)
'Effortlessly engaging and funny as hell' (Rhod Gilbert).

Robert White
Robert tells engaging stories, strong jokes and occasionally performs a bit of musical comedy. Material derives from his unusual life and abstract perspective as he twists his thoughts in a peculiar fashion culminating in always clever, often wordy and sometimes cruel humour.
'Robert White, probably – no definitely – the only asperger, dyslexic, cross lateral,
gay, quarter-Welsh, webbed toed comedian on the circuit' (The Guardian).

Sally-Anne Hayward
Sally-Anne is charming and popular, with a winning brand of autobiographical humour. She'll take you on a journey through her slightly eccentric world, including insights into the female psyche and her compulsion to send off spoof job applications.
'Small-time country posh life versus young lady breaking into the stand-up circuit. Fabulous!' (BBC London Live)
'It's easy to imagine Hayward at the 02 or guesting on QI. She is a crowd-pleaser and a straightforward observational comic, but so are most of Britain's favourite comedians today. Hayward is easily the equal of any of them' (The Skinny)
'Innate effusive likeability with straightforward but effective writing... a primetime act' (http://www.Chortle.co.uk)
'Exceptionally funny' (The Independent).
