Rosie Holt: The Illegal Aliens have landed (WIP)
Satirist Rosie Holt invites you to a preview of her new show. Some jokes will triumph, others will fall, all will entertain.
Rosie Holt and her MP alter ego are back but this time fighting their biggest foe yet. Labour are trying to continue the Tories work of stopping the boats, while also still appearing “left wing,” but they have an even bigger problem when unwanted UFOS threaten to invade the UK.
“Can Holt’s comedy career survive the advent of a Labour government? On this evidence, you’d fancy her chances.”
The Guardian.
“The Thick of It levels of writing and performance applied to a very current flavour of political bullshit”
The Times.
“Tightly crafted and brutal political satire with Orwellian flourishes”
The Evening Standard.
“Hilarious and alarmingly close to the bone.”
The New World.
Madeleine Brettingham: Legend (WIP)
What does it take to become a legend? Fuelled by pork scratchings and a lust for glory, 2025's So You Think You're Funny? winner Madeleine Brettingham presents her highly anticipated debut hour of stand-up, exploring what growing up in a world of booze-soaked bad behaviour taught her about how man becomes myth.
Praised for her 'distinctive worldview' (Chortle.co.uk), 'tight and gag-packed writing' (Bruce Dessau), and 'knack for blending offbeat observations with pacey, unexpected punchlines' (List). 'One of the best joke writers in comedy today.' (Frankie Boyle).
