Friday 16th November. Keith Farnan, Steve N. Allen, Rob Coleman.
MC Laura Lexx. PLEASE NOTE, FOR ONE MONTH ONLY THIS IS THE THIRD FRIDAY.
Having appeared on BBC’s Michael Mcintyre Comedy Roadshow as well as adapting his own comedy documentary for RTE, Money, Money, Money: Keith Farnan versus the Economy, Keith Farnan has just topped an outstanding eighteen months by appearing at the Montreal Just For Laughs All Access show or the Canadian Comedy Network and Hollands highest rating comedy show, The Comedy Factory. In America, Showtime have Keith has appeared on their new standup show,Live From Amsterdam, which brings together the best American and European comedians working today. “Brilliant, thought-provoking and laugh out loud funny””– Time Out.
Steve N. Allen's stand-up has taken a path through being a BBC New Comedy semi-finalist, Laughing Horse New Act finalist and Amused Moose Hot Starlet, on to performing at The Comedy Store, The Glee Club, Leicester Square theatre and The Comedy Cafe. Most recently he's been one of the two newsreaders on BBC 2's The Mash Report. "A cutting wit" Time Out.
Rob Coleman is a very versatile act with a mix of beautifully written gags, sharp observational humour and audience banter. Most of all, however this is a massively self indulgent going away present to himself before he embarks on the ocean row. If he dies on his arse he many never come back. He's been called "Very strong and extremely funny ...a naturally funny man." by the Bedfordshire News, but what do they know?
Our MC is Laura Lexx, one of the most effortless comedians making a splash in the comedy scene today. She indulges her audience with childish glee and attention, and her shows are never the same twice. "Next generation Lucy Porter" Chortle.co.uk.

Friday December 14th. Brian Damage and Krysstal, Pierre Hollins, Thomas Green. MC Ben Van Der Velde.
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. "As daft and charming as they are funny" The Stage.
Pierre Hollins has been a comedy circuit favourite for many years, and has headlined clubs throughout UK, Europe, Middle East and Asia. "Always enjoyable, often inspired." The Source.
Thomas Green is a UK based Australian Stand Up Comedian and actor with an interesting plot twist: he’s a supply teacher in the UK. Green is known for having a face of elasticity, a unique story-telling style and a highly energetic stage presence. "Clever and natural" The Advertiser.
Ben Van der Velde is a stand-up comedian, actor, improviser and presenter, who, over the past few years, has spread joy and nonsense to all four corners of the British Isles.“A sharp and crafty gagsmith.” Steve Bennett, Chortle.

Friday 11th January. Andrew Bird, Sindhu Vee, Pete Phillpson. MC Lou Conran.
Andrew Bird is from Northamptonshire. He watched The Young Ones with his brothers when he was eight years old at two in the morning on Comic Relief. Because it was for charity he was allowed to stay up. He has wanted to try and be funny in some way ever since. “A great storyteller. Funny, likeable and effortless” Time Out.
Sindhu Vee is already a firm favourite on the comedy circuit securing gigs across the country including the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017) and two sell-out nights at London’s coveted Museum of Comedy with her solo show The Girl From Sindhustan.
Alongside stand-up Sindhu has a flourishing television & radio career, having performed a support slot for Live From The BBC for BBC Worldwide and Alan Davies As Yet Untitled for Channel Dave. On radio Sindhu has appeared a host of shows for BBC including; Woman’s Hour 70th Birthday Party and It’s a Funny World. Sindhu has her own BBC Radio 4 Comedy Special – Sindhustan.
Also on the bill is Pete Phillipson. Manchester based Pete has been building a name for himself on the circuit as a fantastically funny act over the last few years, mixing fast paced observations and routines with wonderful characterisations. Pete is able to command an audience as well as he commands a variety of accents, wearing his comedy heart on his sleeve and leaving the audience in hysterics at his misfortunes and frustrations with the minutiae of everyday life. “Original and sharp humour” – Funhouse Comedy Clubs.
Our MC is Lou Conran. I'm a comedian, writer, performer, and ‘a superlative storyteller’ – Edinburgh Guide. And I've been performing stand up since 2005 all over the UK and more recently Australia, and I bloody love MCing. I have supported, amongst others, Sarah Millican, and Joe Lycett on tour and was a finalist in the English Comedian of the Year in 2017.

Friday 8th February. Barry Castagnola, Barry Dodds, Tom Taylor. MC Howard Read.
Our MC is Howard Read. As a Stand up Howard Read is brilliantly off the wall. Totally silly, songs and jokes and stupidness. The man is a buffoon of the highest order. And in this business that is a good thing. "Genius" Radio Times.
