Russell Hicks heads out on his first tour, but not his first rodeo. (Warning: This is a stand up show. NOT a rodeo.)  Russell Hicks is here to stay and he really is happy to be here. So, why don’t British People believe him? Hot off the back of a starring role in an Amazon Prime show that nobody watched, and was cancelled immediately,

It’s the year 2024 and there’s a lot of talk about AI taking over humans. Only one man can out-talk the chat-bots & robots. One hour of standup comedy written by a human, performed by a human........Edinburgh Fringe favourite Patrick Monahan is back on tour!

WINNER: Best Newcomer Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2024 Join owner and MC of The Misty Moon (working men’s club in Rotherham/portal to hell) for a slap-up feast of laughs, tricks and mucky bitter. Can Frankie save showbiz? Can he protect his club from demonic ruin?? Can you touch his special trowel??? (NO WAY).

The 2022 Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee and winner of NextUp’s Biggest Award in Comedy 2024 returns to the Leicester Comedy Festival. This time as himself, Colin. As seen in Netflix’s Afterlife, BBC’s Ghosts, and BBC’s This Time With Alan Partridge, Colin Hoult heads across the UK with a not-to-be-missed stand-up show.

The irrepressible Lucy Porter bounces back into action with a show all about regrets. Frank Sinatra had too few to mention, but Lucy’s got hundreds, and she’s prepared to go into graphic detail about all of them. Disastrous dates, professional calamities, ruined friendships and parenting fails.

Internationally acclaimed cult-favourite Laura Davis returns with rapid-fire stand-up that journeys through nature, empires, lighthouse keeping, existentialism, birdwatching and haunted microwaves. Deft, refreshing, and hilarious, this ‘beguiling’ (Chortle) comedy hour is a must see. 

Milo is sick of it all. Disgusted with the state of things. No thank you. Everything is getting worse. In 2023 he got a temporary tattoo on his arse. Award-winning comedian Milo Edwards returns to Leicester with a show about class, Britain, common decency and cum and other revolting things that are best not talked about.

Catherine Bohart's back and ready to talk about her feelings (again)… Join one of the UK and Ireland’s most-exciting comics for a hilariously twisted second coming-of-age saga as she reckons with death-obsessed parents, queer reproduction and how adulthood, frankly, isn’t living up to her expectations.
