After spending lock down live streaming weekly comedy shows from his garden shed Scott Bennett appeared on BBC News, Sky News and Five Live. This further increased the small, yet loyal, fan base built from Scott’s exemplary comedy club appearances. Since then Scott has appeared on BBC’s Live At The Apollo, become a regular on Radio 4’s The New Quiz, won numerous awards and toured the UK. November 2024 saw Scott perform at the Royal Variety Command Performance.
‘ Live comedy’s best kept secret” Evening Standard “A very funny man” Rob Brydon ★★★★ Chortle ★★★★ TV Bomb ‘Proper meat-and-two-veg jokes’ Beyond The Joke
Faizan Shah moved to the UK as a child. His well-crafted jokes make light of growing up in an immigrant household and the inevitable challenges it brings. The quality of Faizan’s joke writing, and affable stage presence has seen him progress quickly from beating Comedy Store’s King Gong and Frog and Bucket’s Beat the Frog to now breaking through the circuit with a strong 20 minute set and performing at both those venues pro weekend gigs in under 2 years. We believe Faizan to be one of the most exciting new acts to come out of Manchester for a few years.
”One of my favourite new stand up comedians” Guz Khan “Nicely paced, deadpan delivery” Chortle
Few are funnier than Comedy Store and Frog & Bucket veteran Mick Ferry! Whether he’s running with a scatterbrained idea, an audience suggestion or dipping into his extensive mental files of absolute, top drawer gags and routines, the end result is a barrage of laughter from a very happy audience and that is what we are all about.
“See him or regret it” John Bishop ★★★★★ Mirror “Absolute legend” Jason Manford
