Shaft of Wit presents another spectacular Big Comedy Club Night, headlined by Clinton Baptiste, with support acts and MC.
Get ready for an epic evening of stand-up straight from the top-tier headliner, the legendary Clinton Baptiste, the ‘world-famous’ clairvoyant best known from Phoenix Nights.
Expect exaggerated psychic visions, hilariously misguided readings, and comedy gold from this larger-than-life character. Clinton Baptiste is the brilliant creation of Alex Lowe, mastermind behind viral sensation Barry from Watford. His supernatural comedy performances have taken the UK by storm and lit up international festivals.
Supporting on the night:
* Michael Akadiri, junior doctor turned stand-up sensation. Michael’s natural charm and cheeky observational style have made him a rising star in UK comedy. Winner of the Komedia New Comedy Award, he’s been featured on Comedy Central Live, BBC’s New Comedy Award, and ITV’s Stand Up Sketch Show.
* Kevin Daniel, one of the hottest rising stars on the circuit, impressing audiences when he recently supported Rich Hall and Paul Sinha. Kevin’s commanding stage presence and exquisite storytelling have seen him a semi-finalist in British Comedian of the Year 2023 and performing top clubs like The Stand, Glee Club, and Just the Tonic.
* Phil Nichol, Perrier Award Winning force of nature and multi talented comedy legend of the circuit.
**This is a mixed bill comedy evening, not a solo performance.**
