Tee Hee in the Tipi
In association with The Willow Tree at Bourn, from May to September we bring you great comedy in a unique venue in lush surroundings. A tipi in the garden of a country gastro pub with a huge, fairy lit willow tree with swings, and fields out the back. All that and wood fired pizza as well. What's not to like?
The Willow Tree is at 29, High Street, Bourn. CB23 2SQ. www.thewillowtreebourn.com.
Please note that all shows at this venue are over 18s only, unless otherwise stated.

I'm delighted to say that we now have our dates confirmed for 2019!
They are: May 2nd, June 6th, July 4th, August 1st and September 5th.
We're coming back with a slightly different format. Two headline quality acts and a compere makes for a more relaxed atmosphere, a slightly earlier finish, and more time to enjoy the food!
You can now also buy a ticket that includes pizza and a drink.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Thursday May 2nd. Jenny Collier and Matt Price, plus MC Rob Coleman
Jenny Collier has written for BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz, Huffington Post and Glamour Magazine and has travelled (parts of) the world with her comedy. She has performed in Hong Kong, Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland and Australia where she won the Percy Award for most tickets sold in 'The Imaginarium', during the Adelaide Fringe. ''Very likeable...Clearly a rising star'' - Bruce Dessau.
Matt Price may look like the bloke who has been sent over to fix your radiator, but he’s also a craftsman of funny stories and a master of friendly audience banter. He tells the sort of jokes you'll be trying to tell your work mates the following day and is a very experienced compere. He gets real live audiences roaring with laughter night in, night out in every corner of the U.K. and all over the world. "Price is a terrific comedian and wonderful storyteller" The Scotsman.
Our MC is Rob Coleman, who has made what he laughingly calls a career out of being grumpy. And having amazing hair. "Very strong and extremely funny ...a naturally funny man." Bedfordshire News.
8.00pm start - The Willow Tree, High Street, Bourn.
Tickets -
Comedy only £10 + Bkng fee from here (or £10 from 01954 719 775)

Sometimes life gets in the way and we have to change the acts. It doesn't happen very often but we're sorry if it does

Thursday June 6th. Vikki Stone and Sally-Anne Hayward, plus MC Rob Coleman
Vikki Stone is best known for her original comedy songs, but is also an actress, musician and composer.
She has appeared on many TV and Radio shows, including: The John Bishop Show, BBC One, The Now Show, BBC Radio 4, This Morning, ITV, That Sunday Night Show, ITV, I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here....Now, ITV 2, and many others. “The bastard love child of Victoria Wood and Tim Minchin.” — The Scotsman.
Sally-Anne Hayward combines the things you shouldn't like about your best friend's mum with the sensibilities of Jack the Ripper.
An accomplished radio presenter with stage and TV acting credentials ('Absolutely Fabulous' BBC, 'Why the Long Faces' Square Donkey Productions, and TV warm-up for 'Deal or No Deal' Channel 4), Sally-Anne's confident persona and quick wit have rapidly made her a much sought-after comedian. She's a regular compere at Glastonbury Festival, and a keenly anticipated turn on the UK comedy circuit.
She has proven her writing talents with numerous Edinburgh Fringe shows and can display a depth of material that marks out the best comic talent. She has performed all over the world and has provided tour support for Sarah Millican, Russell Howard and Russell Kane.
Chortle praised her "bubbly stream of comedy anecdotes" and "butter wouldn't melt in her mouth" style. BBC London Live simply called her 'fabulous'.
