We're back for the 4th of our fabulous Stand Up Comedy nights.
A very strong line-up of in-demand circuit comedians, performing at an intimate venue in order to raise funds for a local Air Cadet Squadron.
The ticket price is £14.50 (£13.10 + £1.40 booking fee) for - once again - an incredible standard of act.
Headline act: Dave Longley.
He's provided tour support for John Bishop, Troy Hawke, Jim Jeffries; he's directed multiple award winning Edinburgh shows, and written for Live at The Apollo, 8 out of 10 cats, Jason Manford.
Dave continues the trend of outstanding quality headliners at our shows and we're delighted to have him on the bill.
“Wonderfully funny, thinking man’s comedy.” - The Scotsman
“Intelligent, thought provoking and silly. Proves comedy can say something important and still be funny.” - Metro
“As sharp as a barrel full of tacks and as intense and intelligent a performer as you’re likely to see.” - The List
Opening the show is Jon Pearson, Jon's laid back, relatable, and hilarious storytelling is a guaranteed crowd pleaser; and has made him a regular face on the circuit, from his regular repeat performances at prestigious clubs such as The Glee, The Boat Show, Up The Creek, Last Laugh, Laughterhouse. You might have even caught him overseas with performances in Spain, Norway and even Wigan!
Jon is also a familiar face on at comedy festivals across the UK having taken three solo shows to the Leicester, Nottingham & Edinburgh festivals with the highlight of the all coming in the form of a sold out show at his home town Melton Theatre in Melton Mowbray.
Jon has also provided tour support for Darren Harriot and Lucy Porter
