with musical Steve Gribbin - T1101222112Steve Gribbin is a guitar totin', politician smotin', small and burly, short and curly, pumped up, loved up, finger pickin', arse kickin', musical comedy imp... Steve Gribbin is a diminutive guitar-wielding satirist from Liverpool whose scabrous comedy songs and off the wall observations have made him one of the firm favourites of the comedy circuit. Steve's original comedy songs combine razor sharp lyrics with tunes that put their foot in the door of your mind and refuse to leave. Firmly based in rock 'n' roll and refusing to pull no punches, these are not the 'oh so witty' ditties of penguin-suited plink plonk piano playing posh gobs. They are that rarity - comedy songs which are actually funny. Marcel Lucont is France's premier misanthropist and lover. A self-published, self-award winning author of several books, including his own European travelogue, 'Ménage À Cinq,' his account of loose executive women of London, "Whores D'Oeuvre' and his L.A. travelogue, 'Diagnosis: Merde.' Marcel will be residing in London for as long as he is able to put up with your moaning. If you are lucky, he will choose to come and talk at our audience.Performer Marcel Lucont.

with Markus Birdman and almost certainly not Geoff Whiting - T737381494You can always tell successful comedians because their CVs never get updated. Markus is a comedian whose CV suggests his best days are ahead of him. He is paired with Geoff Whiting who is often billed but never actually appears here. He usually substitutes one of his more talented and better known acts as a replacement at relatively short notice so if you want to know who will be appearing please check the websitePerformer Diane Spencer (compere). | |

T0820037796Mitch Benn is not only one of the most sought-after acts on the comedy circuit but is widely acknowledged as one of the best writer/performers of comic songs in the country. Chris McCausland is the only professional comedian in the UK and probably even the world who is blind. This only serves to make his particular brand of observational comedy all the more unique as he chooses to talk about his disability only moderately; instead, priding himself on the variety and originality of his material. MC-Imran Yusuf: Fast and furious yet charmingly endearing, this is a very unique voice that has never been heard before.Performer Mitch Benn. Performer Chris McCausland.
