ADAM LARTER
“High energy act included a brilliantly silly one-man play that went down a storm with the audience” (Three Weeks, ****)
“The sheer volume of his daft ideas is stunning . . a very disorganised genius” **** (The Skinny)

JAY COWLE
“I have a new hero…Cowle is unique, passionate, funny, and one hell of an original stand up…this guy CAN NOT be missed, if you do, then all I can say say is your going to miss out on something pretty special.” (The New Current)

PLUS!

CHRIS ASHTON
&
THE MAN IN THE BOWLER HAT

WIL HODGSON

Stand Up Comedian (but not the kind that does puns, banter or nob gags), serial misfit, collector of 80s girl toys and general retro obsessive, ex skinhead now punk, brief stint as a wrestler, hater of townies and lad mags, admirer of big women (now only armchair enthusiast due to being engaged and in love).

With suport from a FULL LINE UP of TOP UK TALENT

—————————————————
+ Fully Licensed Bar
+ Always Great Value
+ Quality Comedians Every Time
+ Friendly Atmosphere
+ 5 Featured Acts of TOP UK TALENT
