This Machine Kills Wasps / Sketch-Off tickets on sale now

Hello! I hope you are enjoying the futuristic year of 2023 so far, with its flying cars, modernist housing and chocolate bars named after space hardware.

This Machine Kills Wasps on 2nd February

I’m launching a new music / comedy / musical comedy night at the gorgeous Folklore Rooms in Brighton next month.

The venue is above The Quadrant pub on North Street, and is the nicest, best-dressed room in the city. It’s also a mere 5 minute walk from the station, should you be inclined to come down for it from That London.

Brighton’s newest alternative comedy, music, and musical comedy night

I will be MCing, Sharlin and Selena are both amazing, and there are other exciting acts booked who I am not allowed to tell you about yet.

The idea of doing a music AND comedy night is one close to my heart, and if this launch night is a success I’ll make it bi-monthly (as in, every two months). So please do come down and bring all your best friends and enemies along.

The name, if you were wondering, comes from a Half Man Half Biscuit sleeve joke from 2005 via, of course, Woody Guthrie. No wasps were harmed in the making of this event.

Sketch-Off Heats - 24th and 31st January

I am performing in this year’s sketch-off competition at The Museum Of Comedy!

I’m performing with Horse Passports on the 24th and Owl Bag on the 31st - ticket links below. I’ve seen the line-ups for both heats and there are some great acts on both bills - so us horses* and owls** will have to be at the top of our sketch comedy games to reach the next round.

That’s it for this week! Sorry it’s been so plug-heavy. Next week will be extra stuffed with writings to compensate.
