The Best in Comedy show returns to The Corn Hall this August with a great line-up featuring the fantastic Marcus Brigstocke, Scott Bennett, Andrew Bird & Will Duggan!
 
Marcus Brigstocke is the master of satirical comedy and has proved to be blisteringly funny over a wide range of topics. He has notched up an impressive list of TV credits including his role as team captain on Argumental, and host of The Late Edition and I’ve Never Seen Star Wars.
 
Other appearances include; Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News for You, Mock the Week, QI and The 11 O’Clock Show, to name a few.
 
★★★★★ "If you haven’t seen him live, then you haven’t seen him at his very best" - The Mirror
 
Described by the Evening Standard as “Live Comedy’s best kept secret” Scott Bennett has been blazing a trail through the stand-up circuit for a decade.
 
In massive demand he has regular appearances on Live at the Apollo, BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz and The Now Show as well as having supported comedians like John Bishop and Michael McIntyre.
 
★★★★ “A stand-up in fine control of his material... a masterclass” – Chortle
 
Andrew Bird appeared on The Russell Howard Hour and supported Russell on tour including Bristol's Ashton Gate Football stadium and Michael McIntyre on an entire arena tour including Wembley and the O2. He’s written on the TV shows Jon Richardson’s Ultimate Worrier and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.
 
“Comedy Gold” – The Scotsman
 
Will Duggan has been performing comedy since 2009 and since then has cemented himself as a dynamic and interesting performer in comedy clubs around the country. He mixes stories and gags with a cheerfully cynical view of the world.
 
“Tight anecdotes which elicit big laughs” – The Skinny
