Replacing Angela is the multi-award winning Paul F Taylor, one of the UK’s most original and distinctive stand-up performers.

There's more than a touch of Harry Hill to him, in the way he fuses quirky offbeat one-liners with surreal and observational flights of fancy to hilarious effect.

Headlining the show is the Irishman, Rory O’Hanlon, one of the most in-demand comics on the circuit.

Having started his career a decade ago in Dublin, this award winning Irish stand-up is a firm favourite with his rapid fire delivery on familiar themes.

Jonny Pelham opens the show. He started his comedy career at university where he achieved runner-up in both the coveted So You Think You’re Funny competition and The Chortle Student Comedy Awards.

He has performed his stand-up on Russell Howards Stand Up Central and Live At The BBC’ and also appeared in the TV series Harriet and Bobby Get Married.
