Richard Herring is an Edinburgh Fringe veteran whose cult status was elevated by television stardom in the 1990s as one half of Lee and Herring. His live performances have enjoyed mass critical acclaim, including his one-man Edinburgh shows Talking Cock, Someone Likes Yoghurt, Ménage a Un, Oh Fuck I'm 40 and The Headmaster's Son. He's also a highly accomplished writer and performer, penning and appearing in several critically acclaimed plays including Punk's Not Dead and Excavating Rita. Recent television appearances include Genius (BBC Two), Have I Got News For You (BBC One) and Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC Two). “Herring is a superior comedian… hilarious” THE GUARDIAN
One thing's for sure, you aren't going to fall asleep when Jarred Christmas is on stage – he'll bound onto the stage looking like an Elvis impersonator on his day off and he'll keep you entertained from the word go. Recent television appearances include Mock the Week (BBC2), 8 Out of 10 Cats (Channel 4) Argumental (Dave) and Dave's One Night Stand (Dave). With 3 sell-out Edinburgh Festival shows and 10 years performing on the best comedy circuits in the world, Jarred takes the audience on a hilarious thrill ride of laughs and gasps with an edge of anger that manifests itself in his incredible rants against the small things in our lives. "One of the funniest men ever to pick up a mic. Some stand-ups are just born with funny bones, Jarred is a complete natural" TIME OUT
Late Night Gimp Fight - the most exciting new sketch group in the country: winners of the Chortle Award for best sketch show 2011; and Edinburgh Comedy Awards best newcomer nominee 2010, offer sublimely irreverent, carefully crafted skits that are unapologetic in their silliness. There will be fast-paced, dark and off-the-wall sketches and tightly choreographed musical set-pieces. "Sketch comedy doesn't get much better than this" THE SCOTSMAN
Carl Donnelly, multi-award winning stand-up comedian from London, is our compare for the evening so prepare to be amazed by his sharp comedic timing and his incredible ability to turn the seemingly mundane existence of the 21st-century slacker into gripping, unmissable stand-up. Carl has recently appeared on such shows as Mock The Week (BBC), Russell Howard's Good News (BBC 3) and Dave's One Night Stand (Dave). "Excellent, fast-rising comic with pacy anecdotal routines" THE SUNDAY TIMES
