Middle – Simon Hall
Simon Hall started performing comedy in 2020, yeah, that 2020! Since then, performing has not got any easier and life has continually tried to block his progress. From a global pandemic to a cancer diagnosis, the last few years have been the best and worst of his life. Simon performed his debut show 4 Big Cs: A tale of comedy, Covid, cancer and some complete and utter c*nts! In 2024 Simon won the coveted Stand Up For Cider comedy competition and part of his prize is to be on a stage with a TV level comedian….and this is tonight with your wonderful headline act…..
Headline – Harriet Dyer - https://harrietdyer.com/
As seen on Live At The Apollo, Rosie Jones’ Disability Comedy Extravaganza, Comedy Central Live & The Russell Howard Hour.
Harriet’s other tv credits include Jokes Only Neurodivergent People Can Tell on Channel 4 and Movie Megastars: Made In The 80s on Sky Max, as well as Elephant In The Room, The Fringe Comedy Showcase, The 13 Million Club, and The Good, The Bad & The Unexpected, all on BBC Radio. Harriet was a main writer for both seasons of Jon Richardson’s Channel Hopping on Channel 4, and she wrote for and starred in Meet the Richardsons on Dave. In 2024, Harriet won The Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award and she won the Neurodiverse Review’s Neurodivergent Representation Award at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe.
Harriet has been a full-time comic since 2013. She’s had numerous critically acclaimed shows, works for the majority of big clubs and festivals, regularly gigs overseas, and prides herself in being totally original – an experience to behold, if you will!
It’s important to find the funny in otherwise bleak times.
Humour can really help us get through to the other side. It plays a part in fighting stigma and helps portray to others the reality of living with mental health issues day to day.
“A must-see and a masterclass of originality”
