"Unfailingly entertaining and skilfully able to pull punchlines, seemingly, out of thin air" Chortle. "His laconic delivery shields an engaging persona and an enquiring mind" The Guardian.

Plus support from ...

Opener - Demitris Deech!

Demitris 'pre-comic' life is possibly his inspiration for comedy - working as a Financial Advisor, an Ice-Cream Man and was even almost recruited as a spy!! during his time as a Civil Servant; during where he now boasts he signed 'The Official Secrets Act' (though he claims he did not read the small print).

Nowadays Demitris keeps nothing a secret!

Thought of as one of the best ad-libbers in the business Demitris' comedic mind touches politics, sport and the trials and tribulations of being a newly married man.

Middle Spot - Dave Wilder!

West End New Act of the Year finalist Dave Wilder is one of the most exciting new one-liner comics on the circuit today.

MC - Chris Brooker!

One of comedy’s heavy hitters, Chris Brooker’s infectious energy and enthusiasm sweeps through a room like an irresistible force. Chris’ combination of hilarious,original material and inspired improvisation means that you will never see the same routine twice. “Very funny, very quick… On the spot humour.” BBC
