Good Ship Comedy presents Marcel Lucont

MARCEL LUCONT
Flâneur, raconteur and bon-viveur, Marcel Lucont is easily the greatest UK-based French comedian around. Winner of the Amused Moose Award for the Best Comedy Show of Edinburgh Fringe and the FringeWorld Award for Best Comedy, he has also been seen on TV as a star of Live at The Comedy Store and The John Bishop Show. Marcel has toured the world with his dry wit, bawdy chansons and exquisite sex poetry. He has played the Edinburgh Fringe, Melbourne Comedy Festival, New Zealand Comedy Festival, Sydney Comedy Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Great Britain, Singapore, Amsterdam, Croatia, Vietnam, Slovenia and Jersey.

JENNY COLLIER
Jenny moved from the Welsh mountains to the Big Smoke in 2010 and has since embarked upon a career in stand-up comedy.

She has written for BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz, Huffington Post and Glamour Magazine and has travelled (parts of) the world with her comedy. She has performed in Hong Kong, Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland and Australia where she won the Percy Award for most tickets sold in The Imaginarium (over 1900 tickets) during the Adelaide Fringe.

Most recently she support Jason Manford on his tour and is surely set for even bigger and better things in the very near future.

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
