Brennan is a multi award winning working class wordsmith (Edinburgh Best Newcomer Nominee and English Comedian Of The Year Winner). A stand-up, a storyteller, and self confessed mummy’s boy, his boyish cheeks recently cropped up on Survival Of The Fittest (ITV), The Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV) Live At The Comedy Store (Comedy Central) and racking up over 6 million YouTube hits for his stint on Top Gear (BBC).

A true Northern voice, with family close to his heart. Your Mum is going to love him! Not like that, you dirty little perve.

“A powerfully entertaining, unstoppable force” - Chortle

“A teenage Alan Bennett” - The Skinny

“Beautiful, raucous and touching” - The Independent

“Absolutely incredible” - Phoebe Waller Bridge

 

Louise Leigh

At the age of 37, Louise realised she’d never ride through Paris in a sports car with the warm wind in her hair. So she waited another 5 or 6 years and took up stand up comedy instead.

Since then, Louise has performed two well-received runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and is working for some of the biggest comedy clubs in the UK.

Alongside that Louise has racked up an impressive 5 solo shows, performing at festivals including Glasgow, Bath, Exeter, Chippenham, Bristol, Edinburgh, and Brighton to name a few. Louise has also performed in Holland & Spain and provided tour support for Carl Hutchinson, Nabil Abdulrashid & Stephen Bailey.

“A naturally funny woman” - ★★★★ - Chortle

“Big belly laughs” - ★★★★ - Entertainment Focus

 

El Purnell

El Purnell is a unique whirlwind of a crowd-pleasing comedy act. His energy and gags per minute are off the scale delivering many belly laughs and so much fun for the audience. He has a unique and clever spin delivering his set in Spanish with a springle of English. Audiences LOVE the interaction, jokes, and actual realisation they can understand him without speaking his mother tongue.

Highlights for Ecuador's No 1 comedian include several runs at the Edinburgh festival, TV shows for both BBC and Sky TV and international gigs in Ecuador, Ireland, Germany, and Thailand.

“That was staggeringly original” - Adam Bloom

“Hilarious, the funniest Ecuadorian act ever” - Ray Bradshaw

 

Dave Twentyman

Affable, quick-witted banter merchant, Dave Twentyman survived a childhood in St Helens by evolving rapid, startlingly-bright patter and a smile that he somehow stole from Barry Manilow. This is a man who could teach Teflon a trick-or-two but who remains vastly more fun than your average frying-pan. What higher praise can there be?

No matter what your mood, you really can't help but warm to Dave. He puts a big smile on everyone's face. His chatty, cheeky style endears him to the toughest of crowds. Dave talks a lot about the subjects closer to home, such as family life & friends. Its lighthearted, positive fun, you can't help relating to.

A regular performer at many of the best weekend clubs in the country, Dave has also performed at a number of music festivals over the years such as Leeds, V Festival, Download, etc

“Thoroughly impressed, best I've seen in ages. Great warmth and style” - Dave Spikey

“F**king Brilliant” - John Bishop

“Really like his stuff” - Jason Manford
