So come and join us for a full professional line-up of hilarious comedy.
Opener
DREW TAYLOR
South Wales-based Drew has been making waves all over the UK comedy scene despite only being active since April 2015. Sharp, observational comedy at its best, Drew has played most of the major weekend comedy clubs over the UK including the Glee Club, Jongluers, Comedy Caberet and Hot Water Comedy Clubs. Whilst equally proficient at opening, middling or closing comedy nights, Drew is quickly building a reputation as a specialist comedy MC, combining interactive crowd work with his own brand of unique humour. Drew also recently hosted the big closing gala at the Merthyr Comedy Festival in South Wales.
