EXTRA DATE ADDED DUE TO HUGE DEMAND

Viral YouTube comedy phenomenon, Andrew Lawrence, takes his hard-edged satire on the road.

The ‘Live at the Apollo’, multiple award-winning stand-up star, has spent twenty years touring comedy clubs and festivals around the world, honing his craft to perfection.

Having been ‘cancelled’ twice for his unflinching, uproarious political humour, Andrew Lawrence has come back stronger each time, unstoppable in the face of censorship, selling out venues wherever he goes.

Now at the top of his game, following on from the huge success of his online videos- where he relentlessly pokes fun at Britain’s clown show political establishment – Andrew Lawrence is bringing his funniest show yet around the UK, a night of guaranteed belly laughs from one of this country’s very best comedians.

Comedian Lee Hurst has had a varied life, a former cleaner, a van driver and labourer.
He became a comedian, did TV Warm Up work and then ended up on TV himself as one of the stars of the hit BBC comedy sports quiz They Think It’s All Over as well as numerous other TV shows. He then walked away from it all to open his own Backyard Comedy Club in Bethnal Green in London’s East End.
He also went to Iraq and Afghanistan to entertain the troops (ours).
In 2011 he knocked it down and built a 7-storey hotel reopening his comedy club on the ground floor. (Told you he’s had a varied life.)
Lee is now touring again with his new stand-up show ‘No Particular Order’.
A night where the audience is invited to choose the running order of the show by picking cards displayed on the stage.
Please bear in mind, some of the cards are not what they appear to be…

Jason Manford returns with his massively-successful live show, A Manford All Seasons.

After trying out new material at the Gatehouse last year, he’s coming back with the finished show – more polished, more jokes and funnier than ever.

A Manford All Seasons has been wowing audiences and critics alike, with his iconic ‘expert observational comedy’ (The Guardian) rated as ‘comic gold’ (Mail on Sunday).

Don’t miss the chance to see Britain’s brightest stand-up comic on your doorstep.

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.

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND

This is not a musical. Milton Jones is tone deaf and has no sense of rhythm, but at least he doesn’t make a song and dance about it.

He has more important things to discuss. Like giraffes…and there’s a bit about tomatoes.

You might know him from Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo or Radio 4. Or that time he stood for the Scottish National Party, fought a hard campaign, but in the end had to respect the wishes of the people of Cardiff.

A whole new show of daftness. You know it makes sense.

WARNING: Contains jokes from the start.

New tour show for 2025! 90 minutes of improv, mayhem, gaming comedy, crowdwork and songs from the UK’s most manic comic on his first-ever stand-up tour! Best known for his high-octane improvisation and game show The Dark Room, come get played with!

First half: In this joyous anarchic geeky rant Mr Robertson unleashes 40 years of his love of videogames and geek culture and spares no sacred hedgehog or dorky incel in his quest to make fun of every niche interest he has. From the highest of platinum trophies to the lowest reaches of internet influencers, this is a history of gaming unlike any other.*

*In the sense that the man presenting it has social skills, limited though they be.

Second half: John presents his acclaimed EdFringe show The Human Hurricane – expect sex, crowdsurfs, crowdwork, songs, callbacks to the first half, and somehow even less structure!
