Amused Moose Comedy's National New Comic Award 2017: Heat 6, Plus Tom Allen and Ian Smith

By:

On 12 March, you can vote for twelve exciting new comedians - Chloe Green, Pauline Eyre, Kai Samra, Esther Manito, Robin Parmiter, Alice Burden, Ben Bridgeman, President Obonjo, Claire Lenhan, Alex Petropoulos, Steve McLean and George Rigden - onstage at Kings X's iconic WaterRats music/comedy venue, which launched Oasis in London and Bob Dylan in the UK.

They have already won through from the qualifying rounds so you're in for some fun at the coolest comedy night in town, hosted by "wonderfully inventive and creative" awardwinning Moose-favourite Ian Smith.

Ian introduces 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown's "delight of raconteurship" Tom Allen plus the 12 contenders who having already won through from the qualifying rounds, need your votes to get into the semifinals, and then on their way to the Edinburgh Fringe in August where finalists battle for fame, fortune and a shiny moose trophy (previously won by Jack Whitehall and Sarah Millican, with finalists including Josh Widdicombe, Romesh Ranganathan, Jimmy Carr and Greg Davies).

Amused Moose's multi-awardwinning and TimeOut Recommended comedy nights feature the very best stand-ups on the comedy circuit, television and festivals worldwide, as well as brilliant handpicked breaking talent.

Delight not only in tonight's mirthmakers, but comedy-goers are very welcome to enjoy this atmospheric historic venue any time from 5.30pm to socialise and mingle before the show, during the interval and aftershow until midnight.

To make the most of your night out, maybe have a pre-show meal which will be even tastier because of the 20% comedy-goers discount on food ordered before 7pm. There is an extensive bar with real ale, and air conditioning.

Showtime: 7.45pm; the comedy room opens at 7.15pm.
Tickets: £8 to £10 on 020 7287 3727 and www.amusedmoose.com/12march2017 (any unsold tickets, cash-on-the-door).
Venue: The Water Rats theatre, 328 Grays Inn Road, WC1X 8BZ.
Tube: Kings Cross station is only a few minutes walk away.
