A dog, a dog owner, owned by a dog, a surrealist, an absurdist and an artist who is comedy of person. A parent, a thrower, a catcher, a reader and a farmer. His 16th show is turning out to be his best yet. For connoisseurs of comedy who have seen it all and are funny in their own bones. Top drawer Tony. I’ve said too much. Get in. ???? "Inspired nonsense" - Scotsman ???? "Takes post-modern stand-up to a dangerously funny new level" - Guardian ???? "Chaos has rarely been so finely constructed and this much fun" - Times ?????

Jason Byrne: Audience Precipitation

He’s back for more comedy chaos! Jason has learnt over the past few years that we all need to “play” a bit more in our lives. With this in mind, Jason will do what he does best, connecting with the audience in a way no other comic can. Whether it’s inviting or dragging (as it has been known) people up onto stage and making a “holy show of them” as they say in Ireland. Jason’s Audience Precipitation will be a laugh out loud, must-see show, with a light drizzle of audience participation… oooh, clever that. "Unmissable" - Evening Standard "Watching a new Jason Byrne show is a bit like witnessing lightning in a bottle" - Edinburgh Evening News "Byrne is consistently brilliant" - Metro "The outright king of live comedy" - Times

Mark Thomas: 50 Things About Us

Mark uses his trademark style of storytelling, stand-up, subversion and really, really well researched material to try and find out how the hell we ended up in the middle of this sh*t show. 50 Things About Us is a show about songs, gongs, loot, tradition, wigs, nicking, statues, art and identity. A sort of funny national edition of Who Do You Think You Are? Mark says, “Look, I have been doing this for 34 years. I have gone from stand-up to theatre and half way back again. It’s another slightly odd show, a sort of sweary History Channel with laughs and creative mischief. If you’ve seen my shows before, this one is going to be a show in the vein of 100 Acts of Minor Dissent.” ????? "A master of this type of entertainment…" - Arts Desk ???? "This is a show that comes from the guts" - Telegraph ???? "Righteous, moving and funny… Mark Thomas should be on prescription" - Herald
