YIANNI: NUMB AND NUMBER
9.15pm, £8.50 (£7 concs)

Hyperlogical comedian Yianni, obsessed by numbers is diagnosed mildly autistic aged 33.3 (recurring) and finally understands why. An irreverant hour of number-based, logic-fuelled absurdity. Don’t panic. No maths knowledge required!

Weds 26 Sept

ALISTAIR BARRIE: URBAN FOGEY
7.30pm, £10 (£8 concs)
Tickets HERE.

Alistair is getting that little bit older, and lives in a city. He rather likes good tailoring and nice shoes, but sometimes wishes he was down with the kids, which proves he isn’t.
The List called him a ‘comic dandy’, he prefers ‘Urban Fogey’. The Independent went with ‘excellent’.

Weds 26 Sept

MARCEL LUCONT: GALLIC SYMBOL
Amused Moose Laughter Award winner
9.15pm, £12 (£10 concs)
Tickets HERE.

Witty acerbic Frenchman seeks an audience for one hour only, for fun, adventure and maybe more. Must have own underwear, socks and breath but be prepared to have these charmed off, laughed off and taken away respectively.

Thurs 27 Sept

LAURENCE CLARK: INSPIRED
9.45pm, £12 (£10 concs)
Tickets HERE.

How come a Paralympic football team losing in the first round will still be thought inspirational, but when the regular England team does the same they’re a bunch of bastards?
In his inimitable style that’s earned him numerous four and five star reviews, Laurence flips our idea of what’s inspirational on its head.

Expect absurd logic, death-defying stunts and unusual varieties of crisps … just don’t expect to come away ‘inspired’!

Star of BBC1’s We Won’t Drop The Baby.
