THU 27TH JUN, 2013 7.45pm

ROGER MONKHOUSE
A consummate stand-up who employs a deadly combination of charm and menace to exert a masterful control over any audience. A highly original and quirky performer, Roger Monkhouse`s trademark stage-prowling style and curious, inimitable manner have established him as one of the hottest names on the comedy circuit. Supremely confident, with audience banter down to an art form, Roger is happy to improvise freely but has no shortage of first class material in his armoury. A master of observational comedy with a routine that is universally and unfailingly hysterical. Recently appeared on 'The Comedy Store' for Comedy Central.
"unfailingly entertaining and skilfully able to pull punchlines, seemingly, out of thin air" Chortle(Chortle.co.uk)
"an enthusiasm akin to that of an excitable professor who's just found the gene that would enable a python to grow a beard" Manchester Evening News

PETER WHITE
Peter White thinks he's hilarious. Other people seem to agree. Born in a small town in Nova Scotia, Canada, Peter has gone on to accomplish a lot in a short time. He recorded his own hour long Comedy Network stand up special, was nominated for Canadian Comedy Award and a Writer's Guild of Canada Award, and appeared in a TV mini-series with Pierce Brosnan.

GEOFF NORCOTT
Everything Norcott does is under-pinned by enthusiasm, optimism and a sharp comic mind. His abundance of energy combined with a storming mix of observations, impressions and satire has made him a hugely popular act both in the UK and abroad. As a former teacher, Geoff is a refreshing and humorous commentator and his on-screen presence includes main anchor on the WKD Shed Sports Show and frequent radio appearances on Talksport's 'Hawksby & Jacobs Show', where he endeavours to see the funny side of cricket.
"Straightforward stand up at its very best" (Broadway Baby)
"Funny, charming, optimistic, but with enough good quality dark material to make you really believe what he's saying." (The List)
