Champion of the Black Country, Jonny Cole is one of the most unique, exciting and hilariously funny acts to come out of the Black Country and unstoppable force in musical comedy. Comparisons to Jasper Carrott and Tim Minchin (depending on the reviewers age) tell only half the story. One of the freshest and funniest new comedians to hit the comedy circuit in the last few years. Jonny Cole is packing out comedy clubs everywhere. With his individual patter and commentary on life, coupled with his original songs, he is being described as a ‘breath of fresh air’. Never forgetting his ‘Black Country’ roots Jonny has written original songs about life, love and loss (his Xbox) with hilarious results.

Comedy’s greatest mad scientist of one-liners arrives back in town, armed with an enormous vessel of puns to be tested on selected members of the general public.

“The best showcase of pure joke-writing skill” (Guardian).

Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Glenn Moore has written too many jokes again.

Expect a fast-paced whirlwind of punchlines from one of the greatest joke-writers of his generation. As seen on Live At The Apollo, Have I Got News For You, Mock The Week, Cats Does Countdown. As heard on The Dave Berry Breakfast Show on Absolute Radio, The News Quiz, Just A Minute, and his own Radio 4 series Glenn Moore’s Almanac.

Life can’t just be the humdrum, the mundane and the routine before the inevitable slide to disease, decay and death.

Why can’t we sneak in a bit of awesome, a tad of amazing and maybe a smidge of wonderful? A forest canopy opening onto a huge vista would be enchanting for some, but my ancestors wandered in the desert for forty years, I think we’ve been outdoors enough.

Others get their fix from the spiritual, but I’ve been harbouring a grudge against God since my mother stopped me going to Arsenal after my Barmitzvah.

Forty nine years ago. ’God will be watching’ she said.

Well, at least he got to see the game. The point is, life could be so much better so I’m on the lookout. Come and join me on the hunt.

Love, Ian

Blending storytelling and stand-up, past and present collide in this tale of hijinks and resistance. Directed by Mark Thomas, this celebrates ordinary people still shaping history.

Award-winning theatre maker and “Fringe legend” (Time Out), Victoria Melody joined a historical re-enactment society… because we all deal with divorce differently! Spending weekends as a Musketeer trying to get her head straight, she uncovered the story of a bunch of 17th-century radicals called The Diggers – and everything changed.

What started as a personal search for happiness turned into a quest to find the Diggers of today.

She didn’t expect to find them far from the battlefield, right on her doorstep. Blending storytelling and stand-up, past and present collide in this tale of high jinks and resistance. Directed by Mark Thomas, this celebrates the ordinary people still shaping history.

In celebration of the release of her hilarious memoir of the same name, comedian, novelist, and professional show-off Jenny Eclair comes to Stafford with a brand-new autobiographical show.

From drama school, (mostly drinking cider and eating sausage rolls), sleeping with men who looked like they lived under a carpet, punk poetry, anorexia, bedsit misery, waitressing and not really having a clue about anything, to being the first woman to win the Perrier Award, becoming a mother, author, grumpy old woman, podcaster and nana! ​

Still gigging to sell-out crowds forty years later, Jenny invites you to look back at what she can remember before she forgets everything.

Warning, punk poetry, animal impressions and baritone nursery rhyme singing may feature.
