Join us for an evening of top laughs from Nice N’ Spiky Comedy. New material from guest comics trying out ideas for Tour/ TV/ Radio. Including Bobby Mair, Radu Isac, Brett Goldstein, Francis Boulle and Saskia Preston. With Matt Richardson returning as MC following last year's huge Drink Shop Do success.
MATT RICHARDSON (MC)
Virgin Radio drivetime host and former co-presenter of ITV's Xtra Factor, Matt has seen some strange things in his meander through the shallows of celebdom. Finally he can tell you about it.
“High wattage charisma” - The Guardian
BOBBY MAIR
An exploding ball of Canadian politeness with a penchant for wispy rage. Bobby brings his ire to everything from fatherhood to terrorism to recipes for pizza. But we’re sure he’s a teddy bear underneath. Maybe a grizzly?
“I still wouldn’t want to share a bus seat with Mair, but an hour watching him onstage is an absolute joy.” - Evening Standard
RADU ISAC
A professional stand-up in Romania and founder of the inaugural Eastern European Comedy Festival, Radu unleashes his dour view on an unappreciative world.
“A very nice line in misanthropy… a sharp and quirky comic mind.” - Chortle
BRETT GOLDSTEIN
On the telly in Uncle, The Catherine Tate Show, Drifters or Derek. Brett is here to ruminate upon modern love and laptops. In a funny way.
“While handsome and boyishly charming, Goldstein wields a ready line in self-deprecation.” - The Scotsman
FRANCIS BOULLE
One of the stars of hit podcast and Edinburgh Fringe show Private Parts, when Francis is around tall tales and raucous adventures abound.
“Francis’s dry wit shines through” - Sunday Post
SASKIA PRESTON
Saskia has made a name for herself as an act who delivers up offbeat one liners and observations in a unique and playful style.
'Interesting, quirky act, alien weirdo with odd observations...very good.' - Chortle
DOORS 7PM - BAR UPSTAIRS OPEN ALL AFTERNOON.
SHOW 7.30PM (includes one break)

Discreetly tucked away in the saucy setting of a Victorian bathhouse, Drink, Shop & Do are all about the good times. By day: a mild-mannered King’s Cross café and spritz bar serving specialty teas, coffees, healthy lunches and dreamy cakes. By night: a merry den of drinking and dancing, where…
