Heather Peace
Once upon a time, Heather Peace was performing to 20 of her friends in the local pub. A year later and she is one of the UK’s most exciting new female talents performing to a rapidly growing Peace-army at sell-out gigs across the UK. Her soaring, dramatic vocals share beautiful, honest stories of crap relationships, losing and finding your way again and fighting for new love against stunning jazz soaked piano melodies and pop guitar riffs. The Oscar-nominated Nigel Wright is behind the production of her much anticipated debut album Fairytales, set for release in late spring. The Fairytales Tour will showcase the finished songs from the album to fans across the UK for the first time; including debut single 'Better Than You' and the title track 'Fairytales'. Heather’s last UK tour sold out and with anticipation for this tour riding high, fans are advised to book early!

The very excellent Richard Herring, who has a massive back catalogue of comedy success including being one half of Lee & Herring, writing for Al Murray, TV appearances, and his blog 'Warming Up'.

Catie Wilkins was listed in Dave's 'Top 10 Stand-ups to Catch in 2011' and also appeared on FHM’s Stand Up Hero (ITV4). In 2011 her debut Edinburgh show A Chip off the Odd Block played to sell-out audiences, was nominated for the NOTBBC Best Live Comedy Show award, and gathered 4 star reviews.
The Boy With Tape On His Face
The Boy with Tape on His Face: More Tape A brand new show from The Boy. Mime with noise. Stand-up with no talking - drama with no acting. This boy has to be seen to be believed. As seen on The Royal Variety Performance 2011, ITV1s Comedy Rocks and BBC2’s Comedy Prom with Tim Minchin. What does he do? The less you know, the more you will enjoy! But if you must know, he will have a gunfight, battle Darth Vader and bring John Lennon back to life. All this and more... 2009 sold out. 2010 sold out. 2011 sold out. 2012, don’t miss out, this show will sell out. ‘Utterly spectacular! Endlessly inventive, hysterically funny. Sublime physical lunacy – fight for a ticket.’ Time Out.

Sean Hughes: Life Becomes Noises
It has been over a year since his father died, and Sean is dealing with his death in a way that only Sean can. This hilarious yet poignant tale is a beautiful insight into the lighter side of dying and getting older, going to places that comedy rarely goes, highlighting how ridiculous life is and how quickly it can be taken away. Although dealing with the taboo subject of death it has always been Sean’s willingness to tackle difficult topics head-on, with humour, that makes him shine. ‘Hugely impressive and intelligent’ - Time Out ‘One of the best stand-ups of his generation’ - Telegraph
