WITH MAISIE ADAM, STEFANO PAOLINI, TOUSSAINT DOUGLASS & MIKE COX!
Headlined by Yorkshire-born comedian Maisie Adam! Her comedy career kicked off in 2017, when she entered the nationwide So You Think You're Funny? competition (which has previously been won by many of her comedy heroes, including Peter Kay, Aisling Bea, and Tom Allen). Before she knew it, she found herself with a place in the Grand Final, held at the Gilded Balloon up at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and on 24th August she won the competition, becoming only the 4th woman to have done so in its' 30-year history. The following year, Maisie was nominated for the Best Newcomer award at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards for her debut show ‘Vague’, where she also won the Amused Moose National Comic Award.
Maisie's anecdotal material and witty charm have quickly won her praise up and down the country and she has since appeared on Mock the Week, Have I Got News for You, QI, Roast Battle, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Hypothetical and The Stand-Up Sketch Show. She also hosts the podcast 'That's A First' alongside fellow comedian Tom Lucy.
Plus opening the show is the brilliant Stefano Paolini! Seen on TV shows including Channel 4's Double Take and BBC Radio 4's Dead Ringers. His combination of impressions, characters and beatboxing has seen him perform nationally in major comedy clubs like the Comedy Store, Glee Club and Comedy Carnival and internationally in places such as Myanmar, Hong Kong and Dubai. In 2022 he was a semi-finalist on Britain's Got Talent.
Toussaint Douglass is one of comedy’s most exciting and talked about new names and is already making serious waves across the industry. His innovative brand of stand up mixes the personal with the political, whilst adding a uniquely absurdist slant to brilliant comic effect.
Seriously talented, joyfully absurd and charmingly awkward with deceptively subversive writing, Toussaint Douglass is the next big thing!
Hosted by the hilarious Mike Cox!
