Line-up :
Mark Thomas
Don't miss chance to see South London and the UK's finest political comedian , none other than the legendary Mark Thomas!
Mark Thomas is widely recognized as one of the boldest and the most uncompromising comedians in the last thirty years, who has had no qualms in combining comedy with political activism. The UK's finest political comedian,his frequent clashes with politicians have helped establish his reputation as a headstrong individual and as a powerful comedian/political activist.
Probably best known for the political stunts as performed on his cult Channel 4 show, The Mark Thomas Comedy Product , cult BBC Radio comedy show The Mary Whitehouse Experience , BBC Radio 4 Manifesto shows and his many award winning touring theatre shows. Mark won 8 awards for performing, 3 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself.
“Thomas is a terrific performer and raconteur, and he has the gift of making an instant community out of a group of strangers.” – The Guardian
“The show will still leave even the most laissez-faire Thatcherite Tory with food for thought and a reminder as to how deep the scars of that era run.” – The Telegraph
“You’ll leave recommitted to the fight against this appalling authoritarian government, to keep that tradition alive.”
– The Guardian

Another great evening . The host always welcomes new people and helps create a real friendly atmosphere. The sound check makes sure the comedians can be heard. That’s why we keep coming back for more. Happy Mondays tomorrow night. No not Shaun and the boys.

The venue was rated as 5 star as it was my own house. The comedians were mostly enjoyable. The atmosphere created by the host was less than satisfactory. I felt that he was sharp and over emphasised the ‘rules’ of the event. Pestering people to put in their web cameras is inappropriate - there are all sort of genuine reasons as to why people choose not to activate their web cameras. If you are going to forcibly insist that people switch on their web camera then consider making it part of the Terms and Conditions so that people can choose to attend or not. At one point I was ‘muted’ and chastised in a public forum for apparently blurting something out which was not the case as I was sitting on my own quietly, not clapping or making any sort of noise that would be detected by the microphone. This spoiled part of the experience for me and would make me consider attending again.
