Don Biswas

Don Biswas is one of the gems of the circuit. A politically charged gag merchant who likes to cover a wide range of subjects including his Asian upbringing, his neuro-diversity as someone with dyspraxia, ADHD, and ASD and even the most important of topics... conspiracy theories. Don has gained huge admiration from all corners of the circuit for his breadth of material and his passionate delivery, making him a regular face in comedy clubs across the UK.

Away from the live circuit, Don recently recorded a comedy special for BBC Radio 4 entitled ‘Neurotopical’ and has appeared on Radio 4’s 13 Million Club, Rosie Jones’s Boxticker as well as UKTV Digitals Rosie Jones’s Disabled Comedy Extravaganza, and BBC Onlines Future Food Stars.

Don's unique style has seen him support John Williams on tour, perform in the USA (Silicon Valley & New York) & Switzerland

“A phenomenal gag teller with an engaging stage persona, Don Biswas shows all the signs of a truly great comic” - Broadway Baby

“Don Biswas put more emphasis on slick one-liners, which made much of his Asperger’s and Asian background” - London is Funny

“His fresh takes on current affairs are consistently hilarious. This will be the first time many audience members would have laughed with, and not at, a conspiracy theorist” - Hecklers Comedy Club

 

Danny Deegan

Danny Deegan is a comedian, writer and actor who began performing in 2003 and has since risen steadily through the ranks of some of the most prestigious comedy clubs in the UK. His tales of mischief and the characters he creates have kept audiences all over the country enthralled as he weaves in and out of the people he has met travelling. His talent and likability coupled with a confident swagger see him as one of the most popular acts in the North.

Fresh from a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe, where he received rave reviews, Danny also recently performed a headline set at the Green Man festival in South Wales getting a great reception from the 400 people in the marquee and being asked to wrap up for Manchester band Doves after their headline set in front of 12,000 people.

Outside of live work Danny has made several TV and radio appearances. From being a guest on Radio GMR to having his own show "Afternoons with Danny Deegan" on CAT FM in Crewe. His TV credits include appearances on "Made in the North" and "The Adam and Shelley Show" to name but two.

“His seamless interactions with the crowd demonstrate that he’s a natural-born comedian... appealing to both the young and old, female and male” - Three Weeks
