Stand by for some 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?
Please note that all shows at this venue are over 18s only, unless otherwise stated.
Thursday July 5th - Laura Lexx, Damion Kingsley, Jason Neale.
MC Chris Norton Walker
Laura Lexx can be found performing up and down the UK in clubs including The Comedy Store, The Glee Club, Komedia, Manfords, The Comedy Loft and many, many more independent promoters.
She has previously supported Jason Manford, Tim Vine , and Russell Kane on tour and gigged internationally in Switzerland, Malta, Hungary, Slovakia, Norway, Belgium and The Czech Republic.
She's appeared at most UK festivals including Bestival, Latitude, Green Man, V Festival, Larmer Tree, Kendall Calling, Festival No. 6 and Lost Village. "one of the most delightful performers you're ever likely to see." GQ.
Damian Kingsley tells stories that are packed full of jokes and observations but also have a compelling narrative to draw in the audience. He delivers them with a unique blend of cheekiness, amiability and engaging audience interaction, undercut by grumpy deadpan moments that are borderline sociopathic. "Powered by punchlines” – Chortle.
Jason Neale has gone from strength-to-strength as a performer, gigging throughout the UK and adding improv/MCing/Sketch-Writing/Character strings to his bow; all with the aim of sharpening his style of anecdotal, unapologetic, out-for-belly-laughs stand-up. “Well-written sharp gags & stories - Exchange Comedy.
MC Chris Norton Walker pokes fun at comedians and audiences alike; mocking assumptions and challenging notions. He uses himself, and his life experiences, as a mirror to ridicule stand up comedy and to deconstruct established comedy motifs. He regularly performs all across the country taking his brand of one-liners, hilarious anecdotes and a commanding stage persona with him. "A dry delivery and some fine one-liners" The Scotsman.
8.00pm. Tickets £10.00 Available online from here or 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 August 2nd. Brian Damage and Krysstal, Mark Cram, Martin Huburn, Adam Beardsmore. MC Rob Coleman
Since meeting at The Edinburgh Festival in 2000 Brian & Krysstal have entertained and delighted all kinds of audiences at comedy clubs, cabaret nights, festivals, corporate and private functions in locations far and wide.
Regular fixtures at The Edinburgh Festival, the duo have worked all over the UK as well as Germany, South Africa, Gozo, Spain, Denmark, Ireland, Australia and of course… Peckham. Brian is infamously grumpy and deadpan, while his assistant Krysstal is glamorous but ditzy
Main support Mark Cram is quite the all-rounder; with both a killer set and strong MCing chops. For the last few years Mark has been plying his comedy trade across the UK. Constantly evolving, usually unpredictable; he is garnering positive reactions everywhere he goes.
Martin Huburn's style combines a jovial energy with his Midlands wit, his opinionated cheeky self and a dry and sharp delivery.
Adam Beardsmore is a newcomer from the West Midlands giving a disgruntled view of his life and answering the questions no one asked.
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. Tickets £10.00 Available online from here or 01954 719 775
