ROBERT WHITE

BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT RUNNER-UP 2018

Robert White is the only gay, Aspergic, quarter-Welsh comic on the British comedy circuit. Known for his brilliant timing and performance style, Robert’s chaotic stage presence, improvisational skills and delivery won him the 2010 Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality. In the same year, he wrote one of Dave’s Top Ten Jokes of The Fringe.

Robert shot into the mainstream this year when he was runner-up on UK’s biggest television talent competition, Britain's Got Talent. His performances were typically anarchic but hilarious.  His madcap stage presence, improvised songs and unique approach to comedy won over the judges, audience and viewers at home from the very first episode of the show all the way through to the final.

“Robert White killed with this show, matching an amazing presence to clever jokes and pitch-perfect delivery’ ’Just brilliant.” ★★★★ Chortle

“Get him on Shooting Stars - Robert White’s show is a jaw-dropping riot…the mix of lewd innuendo, cheesy jokes, music hall songs played on a knackered keyboard and sound-effects games makes for a side-splitting hour.” ★★★★ The List

DAVE GREEN

If you love the surreal one-liner meanderings of American legends Mitch Hedburg and Stephen Wright, then you'll love the bewildering off-kilter excellence of Dave Green.  Listening to his gags is like enjoying a vivid poem which just happens to have unexpected punchlines hiding at the end of every line

“Fantastically original gags.” Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke

“Could be a contender to follow in the footsteps of Milton Jones.” Chortle

MAISIE ADAM

Maisie Adam is a young female comedian from Yorkshire. Having only started on the circuit in 2016, her anecdotal material and self-deprecating charm have quickly won her praise up and down the country.

Having only started on the circuit in 2016, her anecdotal material and self-deprecating charm have quickly won her praise up and down the country. Winning So You Think You're Funny last year and being crowned Amused Moose best Newcomer this August, as well as gaining a nomination for Best Newcomer. Clearly big things are on the horizon. She is a comedian who leaves the audience belly laughing, giving standing ovations, throwing roses onstage, naming their babies after her - but most importantly, she is a comedian who never exaggerates.

"Exudes an appealing, quirky energy and is clearly a natural wit." Chortle

ED PATRICK

Leicester Mercury Comedian of The Year finalist 2016 and Paramount Funniest Student Finalist, Ed Patrick is both comedian and junior doctor, the latter of which provides unique comedic insight into the world of healthcare and the NHS. He makes his hotly anticipated Edinburgh Fringe debut this year with “Junior Optimist” which follows his firsthand experiences, challenges and occasional blind panic working for the much loved, but troubled NHS.

“If I were him I’d quit medicine and do stand-up.” Bruce Dessau, Beyond the Joke

“Masterful, playfully provocative writing.” Chortle

Tom is a writer, director and performer based in London, best known for playing Aston Lange in The Royals (E!), writing and performing (as Eric Chapman) in the Prix Europa-nominated podcast sitcom Wooden Overcoats (available now on all podcast platforms), and as the playwright behind the stage adaptation of the Rocky Horror sequel, Shock Treatment (King’s Head, 2015).

Tom's modernised adaptation of Charles Dickens's Great Expectations (which he directed as the Old Red Lion Theatre's Christmas show in 2017) was published by Methuen in 2017 and is now available in all good bookshops.

In 2017, Crowley & Co. won the Outstanding Contribution to VAULT Festival Award.

AND YOUR RESIDENT HOST: 

BEN VAN DER VELDE

Standing a statuesque five foot five inches high (not in heels) and weighing in at eleven stone (on a good day) Ben is the current light-middleweight contender for compering champion of North London.

"Sharp and crafty gagsmith, a life-giving compere." Chortle

"Wonderfully improvised riffs showcasing his impressive spontaneity and sharp tongue." Edinburgh Festivals Magazine

“The perfect comedy club host – he is a master of audience interaction. The audience weren’t just warmed up, but pretty hysterical even before the first act of the night hit the stage.”  Huffington Post
