Kate Lucas

Award winning musical comedian Kate Lucas is known for her razor sharp and deliciously dark songs. She combines catchy melodies with original lyrics to showcase her playfully bitter musings on life. Audiences have come to expect examples of what not to say and how not to behave from this gloriously talented comic. 

"Wickedly naughty and deliciously dark."★★★★ Broadway Baby 

"A true musical genius."★★★★ Ed Fest Mag 

"Comedy perfection."★★★★★ To Do List 

Carey Marx 

Carey Marx has been a circuit favourite for years, mixing his own blend of dark humour with his mischievous and gleeful delivery.  His wilful disregard for the controversial and delicate is tempered beautifully by his ability to find joy in the most unexpected places. This  hilarious mix of edgy topics and playful gagsmithery can be seen at all the top clubs across the country with Marx regularly playing Jongleurs, Komedia and The Comedy Store and annually compering the largest festivals. 

Carey has taken numerous critically acclaimed shows to Edinburgh Festival Fringe over the years.  

Alongside his stand up, Carey has recorded a popular weekly topical podcast with comedian Barry Castagnola, called The Proper Gander. The hilarious show has received 5 star reviews from listeners and is available through iTunes. 

★★★★★ 
“He is witty, he is observational, and he paints verbal pictures with his writing that are almost tangible as he leads the packed audience through a master class of comedy that at times can be really dark, but are tempered by his cheeky grin.” One4Review  

★★★★ "Another hilarious masterclass… Marx simply has a talent for telling fantastic stories, many of which display the reckless sense of a man half his age (the heart attack a few years ago slowing him only slightly), and he relates them all with sharp, cheeky jokes that tumble so briskly out you barely have time to catch your breath. No bells and whistles, just funny and plenty of it.” Chortle 

"There’s a lot of experience and quality wrapped up in the show." EdFest 

 

Andrea Hubert  

Andrea is a comedian, writer and amateur taxidermist. She has only ever stuffed one mouse (Alan) but she still likes to think of it as a hobby, albeit a rarely practiced one. 

Since late 2010 Andrea has performed stand up comedy all over the UK.  

"She does a good line in comic bile, and the honesty on display is vivid… simultaneously funny, horrific, shocking and genuine. It's a fine balancing act from a performer with charm and skill." Fest
