The Coastal Comedy Show with TV Headliner Troy Hawke!
As seen on BBC3's Live at the Electric and many more.
Legendary star of YouTube, and the Edinburgh Festival
Troy Hawke is an erudite home-schooled 1930's throwback...the Errol Flynn of the high street. Educated, sophisticated, but utterly clueless. He tackles modern issues head on in his uniquely untimely manner.
Milo McCabe (AKA Troy Hawke) is a character comedian with over ten years experience on the circuit and PERTH WEEKLY COMEDY AWARD WINNER 2019. He has twice been nominated for the Amused Moose Best Edinburgh show award and was listed as GQ's Top Ten comedy shows of the festival.
“Undeniably funny' (Chortle)
'Mad comic genius' (The Scotsman)
“A must see for any comedy enthusiast...one of the best comedy acts this year” Edfest Magazine
“A delight to behold” London Theatre Guide
Opening the show is the extremely talented Ben Van De Velde. Ben is a stand-up comedian, actor, improviser and presenter, who, over the past few years, has spread joy and nonsense in some of the very best comedy clubs across the UK and beyond and has performed alongside acts such as Omid Djalili, Reginald D. Hunter and Sarah Millican. We are excited that he will grace our stage.
‘Highly promising…an accomplished comic.’ Time Out
Also appearing on the night is up and coming Nathan Eagle who’s has a unique take on the world and makes the mundane look abstract. Nathan’s engaging stories about childhood hoovers, dodgy geezers and disastrous disco dancing keep the audience hooked.
"Nathan is one of the most original and exciting new acts I have seen in ages. Brilliantly funny" Zoe Lyons
Don’t miss this top night out with some of the best acts on the circuit. The night is hosted by local comic Adrienne Coles – see you there!

The Coastal Comedy Show with Roger Monkhouse!
Stand-up Comedian, Actor, Presenter, Writer and Voiceover Artiste
Roger is a consummate stand-up who employs a deadly combination of charm and menace to exert a masterful control over any audience. A highly original and quirky performer, his trademark stage-prowling style and curious, inimitable manner have established him as one of the hottest names on the comedy circuit.
Supremely confident, with audience banter down to an art form, Roger is happy to improvise freely but has no shortage of first class material in his armoury. A master of observational comedy with a routine that is universally and unfailingly hysterical.
“Unfailingly entertaining and skilfully able to pull punch lines, seemingly, out of thin air” Chortle
Opening the show is the hilarious Luke Honnoraty who is highly regarded as one of the best acts to emerge from the South West in recent years. Luke with his award-winning stand-up burst onto the circuit in 2010 as the winner of the 'South West New Act of the Year' on his 3rd ever gig, and has gone from strength performing alongside the best names in comedy including Matt Richardson, Russell Kane, Katherine Ryan and Joel Dommett.
Also supporting Roger is Sam Russell, an exciting newer act already making his mark on the comedy circuit. Warm and likeable, his optimistic, upbeat brand of comedy focuses on the hilarity of life’s weirder moments and the challenges of it’s everyday mundanities, to which we can all relate.
