“Takes post-modern stand-up to a dangerously funny new level” – The Guardian

‘The King of post-modern nonsense” – Telegraph
 

Opening Act is another regular headline level comedian PETER BRUSH

A highly distinctive performer and deft writer of finely crafted jokes, Peter Brush unassumingly takes the stage with his slight bespectacled frame and scruffy hair, before consummately conquering it with an arsenal of razor sharp quirky one-liners and peerlessly original routines, all delivered in an amusingly awkward fashion.

Peter performs at all the major clubs across the UK, as well as having done many of it’s biggest festivals, he has also played shows in Switzerland, Norway and Hungary. Formerly a BBC New Comedy Award finalist, he has written for several BBC Radio 4 shows and was the support act for Alexei Sayle’s most recent tour. Other acts he has supported on tour include Jason Manford, Fern Brady, Jonathan Pie, Geoff Norcott, Arthur Smith and Paul Sinha.

★★★★½
"Compellingly hilarious.. first-class gag writing… an original and achingly funny voice" - Chorlte

"I love Peter Brush, what a comic" - Jason Manford

Middle Act is AMIT MISTRY

Amit Mistry is a comedian born and raised in Manchester, to Indian ‘freshie’ parents who moved here from abroad to find a better life. Amit shares highly relatable stories about modern life as a dad and husband, leaving all crowds entertained and amused up and down the country! Amit has opened for circuit powerhouses like Stephen Bailey and Mick Ferry, and was shortlisted for BBC new comedy awards in 2024. An act for all, except his in laws!
