ROBIN INCE
One of the most prolific and hard-working men in comedy, Robin is the organiser of the amazing Nine Lessons and Carols For Godless People (featuring Brian Cox, Ben Goldacre, Richard Dawkins and Stewart Lee among others) and current co-presenter of The Infinite Monkey Cage on Radio 4.
He does the Utter Shambles podcast with Josie Long and the famed Book Club comedy night, as well as thoughtful shows that let fascination with science and understanding fuel the humour.
CELIA PACQUOLA
Delightful Aussie Celia has made quite a name for herself in the UK, appearing on Russel Howard’s Good News, Show and Tell and The Rob Brydon show. Warm, charming and irresistibly funny, Celia has a talent for storytelling and bringing big laughs.

BEN TARGET
A Fosters Best Newomer nominee 2012 for his debut Edinburgh show, full of props, insanity and pink paint.
“stupefying, hyperactive, pythonesque madness straight from the hallowed lands of nonsense and whimsy” – ***** Broadway Baby
“not only a hilarious and expertly executed routine but also a deceptively complex production” – **** The List
**** – Chortle
LOU SANDERS
Surrealism, madness, jokes, rollerblades and all those good things.
One of the best new comics to watch out for 2012 in The Sun Newspaper and in London is Funny. She’s also in that advert where she’s playing with a remote control. Great stuff.
‘From the crazy off-beat surrealism of Lou Sanders, it seems like something new is happening in comedy.’ The Independent
‘Lou is not like most comedians and when she rips a room, she really rips it hard… she always ensures a memorable live performance’ The Sun
‘Very Funny’ “Utterly delightful and hugely talented”‘Destined for hugeness.’ TimeOut
MC: JACK DE'ATH
Regular host of Laugh Out London and an emerging versatile comic of charm, props and pasta. There maybe Caramac involved, there may not. His off-beat humor often uses silly drawing and games, which has lead him to be described as “slightly surreal” by a number of people.
