Lloyd Griffith
Lloyd started comedy in 2009 and now performs regularly on professional nights at comedy clubs all across the UK. His confidence and ability to easily engage with the audience has earned him a number of compering residencies, including Get Up Stand Up in London and Therapy Rooms Comedy Club in Tunbridge Wells. 'Inherently funny: voice of an angel' body of a trucker... very neat lines in his comic repertoire' (Steve Bennett, Chortle) '... the next big thing’(FHM) 'There's no doubt about it; Lloyd Griffith is the king of the unexpected. His sense of fun is infectious, his singing voice faultless and his anecdotes are told with boundless confidence. Griffith has clearly established his own style of comedy' (Three Weeks).

Mark Simmons
2009 So You Think You're Funny finalist and 2013 Leicester Mercury Comedian Of The Year runner-up. Rising star Mark Simmons is a consummate one-liner comic. If you love Milton Jones you are likely to adore Mark Simmons. Big hit on the UK circuit and supports some of the bigger names on tour, including Seann Walsh who he co-hosts a movie podcast with. Very clever writing combined with a quirky stage persona. 'To put it simply: if you like Tim Vine, you'll like Mark Simmons, who shares the same love of a tight, silly pun and crushes an admirable quantity into his solo debut, without sacrificing quality' (Steve Bennett, Chortle) 'Clever quips and elegant jokes@ (Standard).

Lily Phillips
Lily Phillips likes to talk and sing about vaginas. She performed her debut solo show Lady Power at the Edinburgh and Camden fringe festivals in 2016. She performs with her comedy cabaret company The Ruby Darlings. "Charming and moderately obscene." (The Scotsman) "Phillips has us hooked." (Culture By Night) "Anyone who says that women are in any way inferior to men when it comes to comedy should be strapped to a seat and made to watch Lily Phillips." (This is Cabaret)

I predict that Barry will be one to look out for in the future…' (Broadway Baby) 'The instantly likeable Jack Barry delivered a strong set of general musings, one-liners and witty anecdotes' (Three Weeks).
