Sometimes controversial but always downright funny, Carey Marx is an absolute must see. Long before turning his hand to comedy, Carey Marx was a magician who once made Princess Beatrice cry. A circuit veteran, Marx concocts his own blend of dark humour with mischief and glee. His wilful disregard for the controversial and taboo is tempered with his ability to find joy in the most unexpected places.

Tom Wrigglesworth is best known for his live storytelling shows and Sony Award winning BBC Radio comedy programmes which take a comical and emotional look at family relationships.

Jake Donaldson’s material often explores themes of masculinity and mental health through stories from Jake’s real life as a partially sighted person, who grew up in the North East of England with a disabled, working-class Dad. 

If you’re not in the market to have your day brightened, a smile firmly planted on your face, or an additional spring in your step then you might want to give Catherine Young a miss! This Middlesbrough lass explodes onto the stage with enough energy to boil your kettle and then some. Lunges, homespun philosophies and bare faced cheek all come served with an enormous sense of fun and contagious laughter. Unmissable.
