MEL BYRON
Having performed across the UK, peddling her unique brand of middle aged bafflement. Her two full-length shows have played at the Edinburgh Fringe and festivals nationwide. 'May just make your day.' (The Scotsman)
DAN TRISCOTT
"Quick witted, sharp, off-beat, and a mind for logic, Dan has got some of the best jokes on the circuit. Bringing a forensic approach to one liners and short stories, performed with relaxed confident charm, he is a wonderful manifestation of pure comedy mechanics in action."
"A lovely mix of material, from the unapologetically daft to the mathematically rigorous." - Silky
"His winning mix of memorable one line gags and surreal visual humour stole the show" - bbc.co.uk
Hosted by MC Claire Rowley, live music to open, from Jay Burleigh.
