Alex Leam: DJ/Comedian - 19:30 to 20:30

A comedy double header! With 2 x 30 minute shows!
Kate Robb (Funny Women Semi-Finalist, ‘Definitely One to Watch’ – Gag n Bone Man Comedy) in 'Doghouse’; a dry look at the ups, but mainly the downs of pet ownership & her perspective of relationships & how sex is just another thing on the to do list.
‘Verbal Hiatus’ by James Beckett (SYTYF & Laughing Horse New Act Semi-Finalist, Beat the Frog & Mr Bens Winner, ‘A great routine with self-deprecating humour & heartwarming honesty’ – Spitfire Comedy) explores navigating life as somebody with a stutter & his 12 year break from the comedy scene.
