Together they create delightful and innovative physical performances that have captivated audiences around the UK.

Your HOST- Rhodri Buttrick
Rhodri is the club founder and has many years’ experience as a standup comic. His observational style can be described as a rare concoction of sarcasm and silliness. His lateral viewpoint lends itself to fun and unpredictable audience integration. This comes into play when he is hosting Stand and Deliver.

“Chaotic energy, combining well-spoken, sculpted anecdotes with unhinged moments of mania”- Reading Today 

“Genuinely love Rhodri’s act”- Paul Pirie (Comedy circuit veteran)

Brilliant experience. A bit pricey, but understandable as it was a small venue.

Tom B reviewed Stand and Deliver Comedy at Reading Biscuit Factory June which happened on 7:00pm on Thu 27th Jun 2024.

Stand and Deliver's June comedy showcase made for a brilliant night out for myself and a work colleague. Having seen many comedy shows such as tours, work-in-progress and similar showcase nights like this, I never know what to expect from a new one, but we both came away thoroughly impressed by the variety of acts, the welcoming and lively atmosphere throughout the venue, the ideal comfy seating in the cinema screen and our whole experience overall. By far the highlight for me was Abbie Edwards (not one of the headline acts), whose take on growing up in religious school and its after-effects kept me in stitches tonight - a real breath of fresh air and an act to watch, definitely! That said, all 4 acts had a host of original jokes and numerous hilarious highlights to offer, so well done to everyone involved. Thanks again to all of the staff, comedians and other folks responsible for making this excellent evening happen - we've every intent of coming back for more!

We laughed from start to finish, which I don't think I've ever done at a standup show. We had a great evening out.
