3rd November - Joe Lycett, Dave Johns & Compere

Joe Lycett is an appealing, engaging and natural performer, with an unaffected, relaxed and effortless stage presence. An accomplished storyteller, he can draw out even the slightest of anecdotes with his innate comic charm and warm wit.

Arguably Joe’s finest achievement to date came in the form of the Chortle Best Newcomer accolade in 2010, following such names as Russell Kane and Sarah Millican to claim the title. As well as this crown, he was also a finalist in the BBC Radio 2 New Comedy Award.

Subtle, witty, and scathing. But charming with it.

Dave Johns is a stalwart of the comedy circuit and has gained a well deserved and enviable reputation as an inventive, exciting and highly entertaining comedian.

He can shift from the sublime, to genius, to uproar in the blink of an eye and his sense of fun on stage is extremely engaging. His unaffected manner and boundless energy generate sparks of magic, he loves every performance almost as much as the audience.

His numerous television appearances include ‘Never Mind The Buzzcocks’, ‘The Harry Hill Show’
