Event information

Show starts at 8pm

This year, the Leicester Comedy Festival has turned 15 and like most teenagers they’re breaking loose and ready to throw a party. Join them, as they celebrate and deliver the best and funniest acts, fresh from this year’s festival as part of a national tour.

Featuring four hit acts…
Alun Cochrane’s warm and intelligent comedy has led to appearances on several radio shows including Just A Minute and TV performances on Have I Got News For You, 8 Out Of Ten Cats, Mock The Week and Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

Jon Richardson is perhaps best known as co-host of BBC6 Music’s The Russell Howard Show. Nominated for the 2007 If.Comedy Newcomer Award, Jon is the fast rising star of British comedy. His stand up deals with life’s irritations from the correct way of eating a sandwich to the pain of queuing incorrectly.

Hapless disc-jockey Ivan Brackenbury is the flagship presenter of Chesterfield and North Derbyshire Hospital Radio. His roadshow captures the fun and excitement you'd expect from being ill in hospital with games, giveaways, patients' requests and Ivan's special blend of music and chat.

Steve Williams will host. “A likeable jack of so many comedy trades, Williams is emerging as a master of them all" The Scotsman

Seating is at unreserved cabaret tables
