Friday 28th March. Zoe Lyons, Tony Cowards, Kiri Pritchard Mclean. MC Laura Lexx
Zoe Lyons created a huge buzz on the comedy circuit in 2004 when she won the 'Nivea Funny Women Award 2004' and reached the finals of 'Channel 4's So You Think You're Funny Award' in the same year. As a result she has become a highly sought after act on both the national and international circuit.
Zoe takes a sideways view of life, picking out the many absurdities and turning them into hilarious routines which she delivers with tremendous energy. More recently she has appeared on Mock The Week, Michael McIntyre's Road Show and Dave's One Night Stand. "Lyons has what it takes to delight any crowd." The Guardian
Tony Cowards. Tony has been performing stand up comedy all over the country since 2004 and is originally from sleepy Suffolk but now lives in rural Wiltshire, where he sits around in his pyjamas, drinking tea, eating Jaffa cakes and playing with his cat whilst training as a world class procrastinator for the 2016 Olympics.
A quickfire joke teller (described by the List magazine as a “Pun-osaurus”) whose one-liners cover a wide spectrum of subjects, his quick wit has made him a sought after act by various promoters and clubs around the UK including The Comedy Company, Up The Creek, Downstairs at the Kings Head, CKP, Best Medicine, Komedia and many, many more; performing opening, middle and, increasingly, headline spots.
Tony’s likable 'everyman' character and wide ranging humour (which is mostly clean) means he is comfortable in front of any audience and is regularly booked to host comedy nights for the military (entertaining all ranks from squaddies up to top brass) as well as universities, football clubs, festivals and for corporate and after dinner work. Tony is also regularly used as an MC by many of the top booking agents and is renowned for his quick wit and superb improvisational skills.
As well as performing, Tony is also a prolific writer; his credits include material for the Comedy Unit at BBC Radio Scotland, "Newsjack" for BBC7 and he is also the principal gag writer for Bristol based Jack FM, as well as regularly contributing to "Viz" and featuring in "The Times" newspaper.
Kiri Pritchard Mclean - With a charming stage manner coupled with a deft, quick wit it's easy to see why Nottingham Comedy Festival named Welsh comic Kiri Pritchard-McLean their Breakout Act of the Year.'Kiri was by far the funniest & quick witted, one to look out for in the future' - Leicester Mercury.
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, described as “upbeat and delightful” (Chortle) her shows are never the same twice. A finalist at both the Paramount and Chortle student comedy finals, she’s “a true pro” and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. "Next generation Lucy Porter" Chortle.co.uk

Friday 25th April. Mrs Barbara Nice, Annette Fagon, Adnan Ahmed. MC Craig Murray
Barbara Nice. Barbara is your average Stockport housewife who given up the domestic bliss of Tupperware and Poundstretcher shops for the unpredictability of the comedy world. No audience is too rowdy for her to handle - she's already raised five teenagers. With the affectionate attitude of a playgroup leader at a wild Iggy Pop concert, Barbara is guaranteed to warm the heart of any audience. " As hilarious as it is possible to get " The Scotsman
Annette Fagon. A loud and engaging comic, Annette frustrated her mother by spending 6 years at university, leaving without a degree, and returning to work there for a further 2 years, despite years of child drama classes and theatre performances.
Currently talking [loudly] about everything from hoodies and mobile phone habits to Beyonce's mental state, she has made rapid progress on the comedy circuit. "A force-of-nature performer, a bold, brash, Midlander with a loud mouth and the sort of no-nonsense delivery that would command the attention of the bawdiest room." Chortle.
Adnan Ahmed addresses big topics and reduces them down to size with a mixture of razor sharp timing and cutting one liners. Boasting a witty and charming style, he can barely hide his more pedantic side... "Disarmingly laid-back, he’s calmly charming with light but enjoyable observations on race." Chortle
Craig Murray is currently one of the hottest rising talents on the comedy circuit.
Craig cut his comedy teeth as resident compere at award- winning London club The Funny Side, sharing a stage with some of the very best comedy acts in the business including Harry Hill, Stewart Lee and even Hollywood legend Robin Williams. He rapidly became a master of the compere's art; able to turn any crowd from a lacklustre mob into a clapping, cheering, delirious audience ready to laugh all night. "Bloody funny." Jo Brand.
