Harriet Dyer
HARRIET IS AN ACTOR, COMEDIAN AND WRITER.
Harriet has been performing stand up comedy professionally since 2013. She was shortlisted for the BBC New Comedy Award competition in 2014 and has performed a number of solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Her credits include The Russell Howard Hour (Sky Max), The 13 Million Club (BBC Radio 4) and Sarah Millican’s Elephant In The Room on BBC Radio 4.

Harriet is also a mental health advocate having founded The Upstanding Citizens Bureau in Oldham, Greater Manchester, which serves as a safe space for those with mental health conditions. She also created the multi-award-winning comedy night, Barking Tales, where fellow comedians talk and tell stories about their own mental health, and she is the author of the book Bipolar Comedian.
“If all you want is a hilarious show, performed by an exquisitely expressive comedian, with an ease of making even the darkest moments in her mental health history funny, then Harriet Dyer is definitely your person! If you don’t fight the fun, it will no doubt find you! It oozes out of Harriet Dyer and infects us all!”
★★★★ Funny Women
“Virtuoso surrealism… Dyer’s imagination and joyful embrace of nonsensical silliness is infectious. It’s so ridiculous that we can’t help but abandon ourselves to it. It’s undeniably funny, too. Dyer is brilliantly likeable, and has a natural instinct for the surreal and the physical.”
★★★★ Wee Review
“Proper silly-nonsense absurdism… Dyer’s energy and commitment to the show is unfailing, and, given how madcap it truly is, she does an excellent job of grabbing the audience and taking it with her to the end.”

Sarah Johnston-Hale
Sarah is a borderline comedian on the edge of pure filth. Even though she hasn't actually got a clue where the edge is and has gone so far past the edge she is in a different continent. Joking about her own life and sexuality, she makes her life situation into one big joke.
Alfie Carter
Alfie’s got a good energy level and is an original thinker. Alfie makes everyone sit up and listen during this performance.
Alfie delves into the fruitful realm of absurdism and daftness. What a treat! At just 20 years old he has been Shortlisted BBC New Comedian of the Year 2022 and is rising fast with an authentic and ridiculous style!
“What a talent! With his funny bones and wondrous imagination he is unstoppable!” – Paul Foot
Dave Twentyman
Affable, quick-witted banter merchant, Dave Twentyman survived a childhood in St Helens by evolving rapid, startlingly-bright patter and a smile that he somehow stole from Barry Manilow.
This is a man who could teach Teflon a trick-or-two but who remains vastly more fun than your average frying-pan. What higher praise can there be? A regular performer at many of the best weekend clubs in the country, Dave has also performed at music festivals such as Leeds, V Festival, Download etc
Dave tours with his own show Dave Twentyman Has ADHD that has received many accolades and reviews
