One of our all time favourties. Multi-award winning surrealist who combines absurdism and bare humanity to beautiful effect.

MYSTERY GUEST HEADLINER
A set from an award winning comedian and one of the brightest comics on the circuit. They are all over British telly, such as QI, Live At The Apollo, Big Fat Quiz Of Everything, 8 Out of 10 Cats (regular and Countdown) and LOADS more. They have also gigged at the O2, scooped a bunch of awards and are generally superb. Not to be missed.
