Line-up.
Mark Thomas
New material from 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
Don Biswas
As seen on BBC Asian Network. As heard on Radio 4 Disability Comedy Show 13 Million Club.
Warmup for Don's recording of a Radio 4 stand-up special "Neurotopical" about having learning difficulties- dyspraxia, mild Asperger’s and ADHD, 'By the quality of his jokes alone, including a choice one about a corporate gig for the DWP, Biswas is the show’s star turn'. The Guardian. www.donbiswascomedy.com
Jenan Younis
BBC New Voices winner Jenan is an Assyrian comedian based in London. She is a finalist in the Amused New Moose New Act Award, 99 Comedy Club Bursary Award and SE Comedian of the Year. Her radio show “Jenan’s comedy award” and podcast “Jenan’s standup snippets” were listed by the Guardian as one of the funniest “things to listen to” during lockdown. “ She regularly contributes to the BBC Asian Network’s ladies’ panel and is a founder of the WEAPONS OF MASS HILARITY comedy night and festival for Middle Eastern performers which was recently featured in The Guardian.
Paul Sweeney
Blurs the line between stand- up & rock star with his sharp, self-deprecating , both entertaining and befuddling and wildly imaginative style of comedy.
“Paul Sweeney swishes about the stage like a surreal tea caddy, liberally tickling our funny bones with his marvellous, unusual, quercine humours” – Paul Foot
Sonia Aste
‘Sprinkle of Spanish summer .. shimmering performance … the perfect anti-Brexit peace-cry.’ ★★★★ – Mumble Comedy
Sarah Evans
Superstar DJ , Newcomer to comedy - Come and support or shatter her comedy dreams. It may well be funny.
