The Coastal Comedy Show with Andy Askins
Award winning Coastal Comedy Club offers the very best in stand-up talent in our beautiful intimate venue in the studio at Lighthouse. Come and enjoy a top night of live stand-up with 3 fantastic acts and host.
Our headline act this month is Andy Askins as seen on:
The John Bishop Show (BBC1)
The Comedy Store (Comedy Central)
Andy Askins is a diminutive figure who exudes an air of vulnerability as he steps up to the microphone armed with a guitar and a cheeky grin. It’s an overwhelmingly misleading demeanour which serves to heighten the impact of the killer lines that he delivers.
Andy has previously had the honour of working with Michael McIntyre, Lee Evans, Alan Carr, Jimmy Carr, Micky Flanagan, Harry Hill, Rhod Gilbert, Bill Bailey and Jack Dee, to name a few stand-up luminaries and we can’t wait to welcome him to Canvas.
“ALTHOUGH HE LOOKS MILD-MANNERED AND STUDIOUS, HE ACTUALLY PACKS A WRY, CHEEKY WIT. THERE IS, MOST DEFINITELY, SOMETHING WARMLY ALLURING ABOUT HIM. HIS WINNING PERSONA GOES A LONG WAY.” Chortle
Opening the show is the hilarious Adam Flood Bath Comedy Festival's New Act of the Year 2022 winner! Flood's biography describes his stand-up style as "high energy and off kilter". We look forward to giving him the Coastal Comedy welcome.
Plus Double-Emmy award winning comedian Fiona Allen who is probably most famous for starring in the iconic “Smack The Pony”, as well as appearing on various TV shows (Skins, Eastenders, Waterloo Rd and more).
As a stand-up, Fiona is rising up the ranks with her warm and likeable observational comedy. We look forward to giving her a Coastal Comedy welcome.

The Coastal Comedy Show with TV headliner Mike Gunn!
Get to see some of the stars of the comedy circuit! This month our resident and award winning Comedy Club brings you another top night of live stand-up with 3 fantastic acts and host.
Our headliner is the incredible Mike Gunn who’s TV appearances include: Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow (BBC1), Celebrity Deal or no Deal (CH 4), Harry Hill’s TV Burp (ITV).
Mike Gunn’s history is as interesting and entertaining as his comedy. A misspent youth and a series of grim jobs cultivated his cynical outlook on life and a perverse desire led him to the world of stand-up. A self-confessed pessimist, he describes himself as “not a natural choice for a career in laughter”.
Early in his career Mike was supporting the likes of Jo Brand and Alan Davies and has supported Lee Mack on his huge UK tour. He now headlines at all the top comedy venues in the UK and is rapidly reaching cult status on the circuit.
“Mike Gunn will make you die laughing” The Guardian
“One of the 10 leading stand-ups in Britain” The Independent on Sunday
Opening the show for your laughing pleasure is Michael Fabbri who regularly performs at major comedy clubs throughout the UK and all over the world.
He has worked as a writer for Radio and TV and recently had his own stand-up series: 'Dyslexicon' on BBC radio 4. He has done several solo shows at the Edinburgh fringe festival and worked as a support act for Micky Flanagan on his Out Out Tour.
‘Exceptionally funny….extremely sharp…..hugely enjoyable’ The Scotsman
Plus Mad Ron –The Third Hardest Man in Uxbridge, who is a comedy creation of Steve Lee, first appearing on the comedy circuit back in December 2015. Mad Ron has taken the circuit by storm. Now a multi award winning act!
Don’t miss this uplifting and hilarious night out that won’t break the bank. Sponsored by Turners Property and United Taxi’s. The show is hosted by local comic Adrienne Coles from award winning Coastal Comedy – see you there!
