Funny Women at the Hoxton Apprentice

Event information

We are now celebrating all the fantastic new talent we discovered in this year's Funny Women Awards… and more. We have a brand new venue, the Hoxton Apprentice, top class restaurant & bar and to go with it …. some top class comedy!

Hosting our first show is the fantastic Mandy Muden with her hilarious mix of magic and comedy, she is the only woman to combine the two on the UK comedy circuit. "Imagine a sexy Tommy Cooper, minus the fez,” EVENING STANDARD

Setting the trend for the future of female comedy is our very special guest; this year's winner of our brand new Funny Women Variety Award, Gemma Whelan, who, in the character of well-spoken spinster Chastity Butterworth, is sure to have you in stitches. “Think Julie Andrews performing comedy, and you’re on the right lines,” STEVE BENNETT, CHORTLE

Also featuring from this year's final are runner up Rachel Parris and finalists Jess Fostekew, Alison Thea-Skot and Lindsay Sharman. Newcomers Lara King and Zoe Grisedale also join us for this exceptional night of comedy.
