Line up
Simon Munnery
Described by the Guardian as one of “comedy’s enduring eccentrics” Simon Munnery has been a pioneer of alternative comedy for over 20 years. His work includes winning the prized Golden Rose of Montreux for his wonderful TV series Attention Scum, appearances on The Alternative Comedy Experience & Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle and pretending to be Banksy’s Lawyer.
“He’s nothing less than a genius” – The Guardian
“There are more brilliant ideas in one of Simon Munnery’s shows than most comics will manage in a lifetime” –The Times
“Genius is a grossly overused and even more grossly misused word – which I am about to use. I think Simon Munnery might just be a comic genius”- ***** The Scotsman
Spencer Jones
The comic had one of the most innovative and original shows at the Fringe with his character The Herbert who mixed props, clowning, mime and silliness to create an hour that was universally acclaimed.
“no explanation can do justice to the experience of watching this ebullient lunacy” ****1/2 – Chortle
“Finding the words to describe it is a struggle; finding it amusing was definitely not” **** – The List
Goose
A one-man sketch powerhouse.
“you just have to submit to this force of nature, until it deposits you, dizzy but exhilarated, close to where you started” **** – Chortle
Luke McQueen
One of the most exciting, daring and imaginative acts on the circuit.
“This is a manic, playful, intelligent and unpredictable hour from an experienced stand-up comedian happy to take risks” ***** – Broadway Baby
Lolly Adefope
A young, fresh voice in the world of character comedy.
“impish and charismatic” – Chortle
**** – The Skinny
MC: Nish Kumar
Another fringe, another super sharp, slick and thoughtful hour of stand-up by this soon to be superstar. Nish also happens to be one of the MC’s in game!
Foster's Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Show nominee 2015
“Sometimes you leave a show feeling that you’ve seen someone surfing towards the shores of success on a huge wave of their own talent” -***** The Mirror
