Karen Bayley - Compere

Karen Bayley is a midlands based act hailing from Birmingham. Karen has been on the circuit for over a decade. She made a name for herself early on in her career reaching the semi-final of the prestigious BBC New Comedy Awards and was later crowned the winner of the 2001 Komedia New Act prize, she followed by becoming the first ever female winner of the prestigious Comedy Store King Gong award as well as reaching the finals of both the BBC New Comedy Awards Showcase and Babycham Funny Women.

Delightfully saucy, her friendly and confident stage presence, combined with a killer wit, an infectious giggle and some devastating one-liners make her a comedic force to be reckoned with, a warm and welcoming with a delightfully saucy and spiky edge, her bold, no nonsense attitude strikes a perfect pitch with men and women alike.

Karen has recently been supporting Joe Lycett on his tour .

\"Karen is one of the most consistently hilarious comedians I have had the pleasure of working with . She's a sharp writer and an unflappable compère, able to cajole any room with her warm audience interaction and precise intelligent gags\" - Joe Lycett

Eric Rushton

Eric is one of the best comics in the current crop of breakthrough acts who are being lined up for debut TV appearances and UK tour shows.

In January 2020 he won the prestigious 'Leicester Mercury Comedian of The Year' award at Leicester Comedy Festival – an award that was previously won by the likes of Romesh Ranganathan, Jason Manford and Jonny Vegas on their way to stardom. Acts are nominated for the award show by some of the biggest comedy promoters in the UK.

\"Offbeat and sarcasm packed routines… held the gig in wonderful contempt.\" – CHORTLE

\"A great comedienne.\" - Jack Dee

Nick Page - Headliner

With some comics there's a moment where you ask yourself 'I wonder how much of this is true?', with Nick Page you might hope it isn't true, but somehow know that it is, mostly. His shows are full to bursting with stories from a life lived on the edge of (self inflicted) disaster. In his shows there are no songs, props or padding, just stories packed with jokes from start to finish. The Guardian Newspaper described him as ' A bear like man with a host of barely believable stories about life, love and brushes with the law'.

In the last few years he has won the prestigious title 'English Comedian of the Year', performed at comedy festivals in 3 continents and been awarded the Operational Service Medal by the British army for numerous gigs in warzones, doing everything from shows in Camp Bastion and Kandahar for 5000 troops at a time, to being helicoptered to perform for 20 soldiers in a patrol base in the desert.

He's reached the live finals of Britain's Got Talent despite having never watched the show. A typical week in the UK might see performances in pubs and theatres before a weekend run at a comedy club. Between cruises and expat bookings he's now performed in over half the world's countries, and even kept busy during covid lockdown performing over 100 online gigs from a studio in his garage.

' A big man with a unique style.... The hit of the night' - Beyond the Joke

' Roguish, bear-like, and with a host of tales about love, life, and brushes with the law' - The Guardian
