ALASDAIR BECKETT-KING
Alasdair is a legendary comedian, in that there is little historical evidence that he exists. But he does exist. Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2017, Alasdair has featured on BBC radio as a comedian and sketch writer, and performed stand-up across the UK, at Glastonbury, Citadel Fest, the Udderbelly Southbank and at the Edinburgh Fringe. He knows quite a lot about 19th century magicians. Tourists often ask to have their photo taken with him, presumably impressed by this. Since the world went to pot with the plague he has become a viral phenomenon with his incredible self-produced sketch videos, each of them worthy of a TV commission on its own. He's a comic who's star is on the rise, probably due to his talent, but also thanks to esoteric pagan forces which he has harnessed.
"A singular and truly distinct act, Alasdair Beckett-King creates his own multi-faceted world." The Scotsman
“A bold and fresh comedy voice.” The Stage
JOE JACOBS
Joe Jacobs is a London based comedian, rapper and writer. Since 2012, he has performed nationally and internationally, sharing bills with acts including Bill Burr, Stewart Lee and Mr. Motivator.
His live shows effortlessly flit between hip hop and comedy and he’s been seen/heard on Channel 4, BBC Radio 4, BBC 6 Music, Radio 1XTRA, plus gained millions of viral video views online.
“Dynamic stage presence and an ironic, arch delivery.” Chortle
CALLY BEATON
Cally is a natural storyteller full of intelligent, distinctive and punchline-rich material. Her act is a rollercoaster ride of anecdotes, observations and stuff even your best mate wouldn’t admit to. She has appeared on John Lloyd’s Museum of Curiosity on BBC Radio 4 and QI, as well as regularly popping up on the New York City circuit.
“Cally Beaton is an exciting and hilarious talent, definitely one to watch. Sometimes you just know when someone’s got it – and she’s got it” Time Out
“Properly funny. A real find” Sandi Toksvig
TOUSSAINT DOUGLASS
As one of comedy’s most exciting and talked about new names, Toussaint Douglass is already making serious waves. His innovative brand of stand up mixes the personal with the political, whilst adding a uniquely absurdist slant to brilliant comic effect.
In 2018 he burst onto the circuit and achieved rave reviews for his outstanding performances at several major UK comedy competitions.Seriously talented, joyfully absurd and charmingly awkward with deceptively subversive writing, there is never a dull moment when Toussaint Douglass takes to the stage.
"He creates vivid, slightly absurd, images of his life...but it’s skilfully concealed beneath a charming quirkiness. One of the best and most distinctive acts… " Chortle
AND YOUR RESIDENT HOST:
BEN VAN DER VELDE
One of the quickest wits around and a much-loved compere, he always brings a jam-packed back of nonsense, silliness and wisecracks to every gig he hosts.
"Wonderfully improvised riffs showcasing his impressive spontaneity and sharp tongue." Edinburgh Festivals Magazine
“The perfect comedy club host – he is a master of audience interaction. The audience weren’t just warmed up, but pretty hysterical even before the first act of the night hit the stage.” Huffington Post
