“Williams’ mix of high brow & low lights is reminiscent of Kitson” - **** Skinny

LOLLY ADEFOPE
Fast rising satirical character comedian who seems destined to be huge. Lolly’s two Edinburgh shows have received tonnes of critical praise and sell out runs at the Soho Theatre. She was recently named one of the rising stars on 2017 by the Guardian.

One of the circuits best up-and-coming stand up talents, Kiri is also fourth of the award nominated sketch group Gein’s Family Giftshop. She already has an impressive CV including her own Halloween Comedy short for sky and appearances on Comedy Central’s Stand up Central and ITV’s @elevenish.

Guest MC TONY LAW
One of our favorites, Tony has been one of the most exciting and surreal comics on the circuit for years. He’s a three time Chortle award winner and has been nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award for best show. It’s always such a pleasure to be in the same room as his daft brain.
