Line Up :

Ben Norris 
The term circuit legend is overused, but Norris rarely departs a stage without leaving it torn to shreds in his wake.
A master of the craft, Norris may not be a household name, but then very few really good comedians are these days.
Ben's TV credits include "Never Mind The Buzzcocks", "They Think It's All Over" and "Mock The Week".
"A cast iron guaranteed headliner" - Londonisfunny.com "A wonderful disgrace of a human being" - Daniel Kitson.

Bold, fast-talking Aussie Jess Fuchs mixes razor-sharp crowd work with wildly relatable stories, observations and chaotic life anecdotes. Regular at The Comedy Store Sydney and has opened for international acts like Fortune Feimster, Gianmarco Soresi  and Morgan Jay.

Peter Francis
In 2001 Peter Francis embarked on a journey, He had a god given gift for making people laugh and he knew from within he was destined to become a comic/comedian actor. Peter has performed all over the world from Hollywood (USA) in venues such The Laugh Factory, The Improv, The Comedy Store and other mainstream and alternative comedy clubs, has toured Europe and now comes to New Cross

Reviews for previous Sion James events

Mark B reviewed Clapham Comedy Club New Years Eve Comedy Party Tuesday 31st December 2024 : Six Top Comedians plus Compere PLUS Welcome drink, pre show nibbles, sweets & chocs & party items, Aftershow Party Choons 'til late which happened on 7:00pm on Tue 31st Dec 2024.

It was a really beautiful way to start the New Year. Sion and Lizzy worked tirelessly to be hospitable hosts the whole night. It was also a very intimate atmosphere which made it easier for a loner like me to strike a conversation and feel included in the festivities. However, please ditch the scotch eggs. They tasted like they were out there since the previous year!

Such fun! Very lively for a Sunday night.. some tables were a bit annoying and felt bad for the acts but they handled it well and it was hilarious. Love the cosy venue at The Railway.. we will be coming back!
