After a decade of slogging away at the comedy coalface, Nina Gilligan joined the ranks of Vegas, Manford and Ranganathan when she was crowned the 2021 Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The Year. 2023 saw Nina named as Best Act in the Yorkshire, North West and Chortle Comedy Awards, 2024 w-it was the BBC Audio Award’s chance to meet Nina and 2025 got off to a flying start when fellow comedians named her Best Club Comic in the UK Comedy Awards! Getting increasingly harder to book, we are sure you will understand why once you have seen her strutting her very funny stuff.

‘Razor-sharp wit’ The Skinny ★★★★★ ‘Breath-taking’ Student Newspaper  ‘Charming sass’ ★★★★★ Deadline

As well as making people laugh (a lot!), Bethany Black was spotted by Russell T Davis which resulted in her playing ‘Helen’ in Channel 4 series’ Cucumber, Banana and Tofu as well as 474 in Doctor Who! This is all well and good but just how funny is she? Oh, don’t worry about that as the answer is ‘very’. Awards include winning the 2020 Joe Comedy Award and Bethany is British Comedy Guide recommended.

“Laughing at every other word” ★★★★★ LGBT Arts Review    “A great comedy mind” British Comedy Guide

Few are funnier than Comedy Store and Frog & Bucket veteran Mick Ferry! Whether he’s running with a scatterbrained idea, an audience suggestion or dipping into his extensive mental files of absolute, top drawer gags and routines, the end result is a barrage of laughter from a very happy audience and that is what we are all about.

“See him or regret it” John Bishop ★★★★★ Mirror “Absolute legend” Jason Manford
