Join us for an evening of laughter with award winning comedians!
Hosted by Howard Walker, we have an exciting line up of acts joining us including:

A natural born storyteller, Oliver is one of the most exciting stand-ups to hit the circuit in recent years and is marked as one to watch after winning over audiences across the UK. Oliver mixes hilarious physicality, dry wit and cheeky charm to his relatable experiences through his well-crafted jokes. Watch this space…!
