This is your February line-up...
MC - ALEXANDER BENNETT
Alexander Bennett’s comedy has been variously described as dark, silly, filthy and thoughtful. Still in his twenties, he has an awful lot under his belt, including numerous Edinburgh Fringe runs, several filmed stand up specials and creating the cult hit comedy game show Hell To Play.
OPEN - ERIC RUSHTON
Award-winning comedian, writer and actor Eric Rushton was the recipient of the first ever Channel 4 Sean Lock Award in 2023 and won Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The Year in 2020. TV credits include ITV2’s The Stand Up Sketch Show and BBC3’s Such Brave Girls.
MIDDLE - MICHAEL MCKENZIE
Michael was a finalist of BBC New Comedy 2022 awards. He "has very well crafted gags and a stage presence that makes audiences warm to him instantly." - Gag'N'Bone Comedy Club's Graeme Rayner
CLOSER - PAUL F TAYLOR
The award-winning Paul F Taylor is a one of the UK’s most original and distinctive stand-up performers. His unique brand of humour fuses quirky offbeat one liners with surreal and observational flights of fancy to fantastical effect. Paul’s persona of a lost bewildered fool sits perfectly alongside his gleefully madcap ideas.
