One of comedy’s most lively, loveable and dynamic performers will be headlining the show.

As seen on Upstart Crow, Dave’s One Night Stand, Celebrity Juice, 8 Out of 10 Cats.

Also on the bill is Eric Rushton, the winner of the prestigious 'Leicester Mercury Comedian of The Year' award in January 2020. Eric has been mixing with the best newcomers on the comedy scene since 2014, impressing audiences with his intelligent, playful material and likeable, self-deprecating stage persona. He was also a Chortle Student finalist in 2016 and So You Think You're Funny? finalist 2017.

Simon Wozniak, one of the most hotly-tipped comedians by promoters and acts alike, will kick off the night. Simon can now be seen performing regularly at some of the biggest and best comedy clubs throughout the UK. While our MC will be Pete Otway, a former BBC New Comedy Award Finalist and the act who supported Lloyd Griffith’s appearance at The Church in March 2020.
