Wednesday 6th October
Birmingham Comedy Festival!

James Dowdeswell

Brilliant, intelligent and engaging entertainment from this West Country gem .

"Dowdeswell has built up some brilliantly clever gags from his slightly absurd observational standpoint."
"... among the most promising of recent comedy finds" Chortle

Jongleurs best newcomer 2001.

Pat Monahan

"a natural-born performer", "you'll never see the same show twice, as he's a compulsive improviser and prolific writer, picking and choosing from his armoury to suit the mood of the room, which he always expertly judges.", "natural, vibrant lunacy." Chortle

Fresh from his Edinburgh show.

Gary Delany

.Master of the dead-pan pun and one-liners.

Finalist in the Daily Telegraph Open Mike and BBC new Act Competitions 2002.
"Gary Delaney has an unyieldingly deadpan posture that makes Jack Dee look like Ainsley Harriot. ..there is plenty to enjoy - including a generous handful of real gems that verge on the genius."
Chortle

Compere - Dan Smith

"Described by the Walsall Observer as 'Walsall's Frank Skinner', Dan has now been entertaining audiences the length and breadth of the country for the best part of three years. And the worst part of one. Rumours that Frank Skinner is being referred to as 'Oldbury's Dan Smith' are, as yet, unconfirmed."
Dan Smith, last week.
