Alasdair Beckett-King

Alasdair is a legendary comedian, in that there is little historical evidence that he exists. But he does exist.

Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2017, Alasdair has featured on BBC radio as a comedian and sketch writer, and performed stand-up across the UK, at Glastonbury, Citadel Fest, the Udderbelly Southbank and at the Edinburgh Fringe. He knows quite a lot about 19th century magicians. Tourists often ask to have their photo taken with him, presumably impressed by this.

"One to Watch" Time Out

Lauren Pattison

Lauren Pattison is effortlessly likeable and relatable, blending millennial chat with more worldly issues like mental health, loneliness and hungover supermarket woes. It's confessional but never preachy, even when talking about topics like sexism in the comedy industry and self-worth. One thing's for sure: Pattison, the BBC New Comedy Award Finalist, need not worry about competing with boys on the circuit.

MC Pete Otway

Since his first gig in 2010, Pete Otway has established himself quickly as a natural and original comic, known for mixing a razor sharp wit with an affable charm and creative writing.

After making it to the finals of the BBC New Comedy Award in 2012, he was chosen to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe as part of Just The Tonic’s prestigious Big Value Showcase in 2013.
