Nick Revell is a stand up and writer of great repute - his material is a mixture of topical, observational and stories. Nick started performing stand-up in 1980, and was a regular at the Comedy Store from 1982, performed at Joungleurs from the day it opened, and was nominated for the Perrier. He recorded six series of the Million Pound Radio Show with Andy Hamilton, which was named best radio comedy at the British Comedy Swards, and he also had his own radio sitcom.  But in 1992 he quit the circuit to concentrate on writing - only to return in 2002, making his Edinburgh comeback with the show Bare Bones the following year. During his haitus he wrote and performed two solo stage shows: The Ghost of John Belushi Flushed by Toilet 1993 and Liberal Psychotic in 1995. His TV writing credits include Drop the Donkey, Not the nine o’clock news as well as stand-up routines for Dave Allen, Jasper Carrot and Bob Monkhouse.

“Scalpel-sharp satirist” LONDON EVENING STANDARD

Actress and stand-up comedian, Kerry Godliman, trained at the Rose Bruford College and has since been in numerous TV and Theatre productions while still managing to perform regularly on the UK comedy circuit. In 2003 she made quite on impact in The Babycham Funny Woman Stand-up competition, for which she received a special mention. She also won second place in The Hackney Empire New Act Final in 2004 and was subsequently asked to be part of Bling Blush & Bonk with fellow stand-ups, Ava Vidal and Roisin Conaty at The Edinburgh Festival where she was described by Chortle as “the one to watch”.

“This cocky Londoner, and up-and-coming actress, knows how to hold an audience attention, with well-honed delivery that ensures her material always get the best response” CHORTLE 

Host for the evening, Richard Brophy is a charming stand-up comedian and compere from Perth, Western Australia. His friendly presence and unique style of dry, surreal humour has seen him rise quickly up the ranks of the UK comedy circuit. Brophy’s been a strong contender in several nation comedy competitions and a presenter and panellist of topical comedy shows “This week on Earth”. Brophy also formed one third of  “International Stand-Up”, a sell-out show at the Edinburgh Fringe 2007. Drawing on his experiences from a dusty childhood, a reckless adolescence and world travels, Brophy finds an original strand of insight and humour that seldom fails to amuse and entertain.
