Resident host DAN NIGHTINGALE introduces double headliners GEOFF NORCOTT and CRAIG MURRAY.
GEOFF NORCOTT is a correspondent for BBC2’s The Mash Report and starred in the latest series of Live at the Apollo. As a satirical comic, he’s written for programmes including Channel 4’s Alternative Election, featured as a guest on Question Time and supported Katherine Ryan on her UK tour. Geoff is also a regular on BBC Radio with appearances on The Now Show, The Today Programme and his own forthcoming Radio 4 stand-up special. He continues to be a sought after headliner both home and abroad – earning an operational services medal for his work gigging on the frontline in Afghanistan.
CRAIG MURRAY is one of the hottest talents on the UK comedy circuit. This charming Yorkshireman is also a very talented actor and presenter; a graduate of The Court Theatre Training Company. Having started his career as a resident compere at the award-winning The Funny Side Comedy Clubs – sharing a stage with some of the very best acts in the business including Harry Hill, Stewart Lee and the late Robin Williams – he’s a master of audience interaction and improvisation. He’s currently recognisable to many as the face (and voice) of Plusnet Broadband. “Bloody funny” – Jo Brand.
DAN NIGHTINGALE, widely regarded as one of the best performers working on the comedy circuit today, is our resident MC. Mixing fiendishly accurate observation with energetic characterisations and killer punch lines, his comedy is original, playful, intelligent, poignant and exciting; sometimes ridiculous… but always hilarious. As well as being a top-class circuit headliner and in-demand MC, he has also performed regular TV warm up for the likes of Jonathan Ross, John Bishop and Celebrity Juice.
