This Autumn The Hawth continues to demonstrate why it has become known as a comedy hotspot, with a fantastic line up for comedians:
Sun 4 October 7.30pm
Henning When: Eins, Zwei, DIY
After more than a decade in Britain, the German Comedy Ambassador has ‘groan’ to like puns… though he still couldn’t eat a whole one. As Henning’s assimilation is not yet complete, he hasn’t lost his sense of Westphalian wonderment at the foibles of British society. Expect a crash course in personal accountability and have a right old laugh at the same time! Wunderbar!
Fri 9 October 8pm
Milton Jones and the Temple of Daft
Yes him with the loud shirts and messed up hair from Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, Michael McIntyre’s Roadshow and multiple series on Radio 4 is back!
An evening in the company of an idiot. Or is he? Yes he is. Only come if you like jokes though. If not you’ll be cross.
Sat 31 October 8pm, Studio
Alfie Moore: The Naked Stun
Following last year’s sell out run at the Edinburgh Festival, former Police Sergeant turned stand-up comedian, and star of BBC Radio 4 It’s a Fair Cop, Alfie tasers his way through 90 minutes of hilarious and fascinating anecdotes drawn from his 18 years on the beat.
Suitable for 16 years plus
Wed 11 November 8pm
Dave Gorman Gets Straight To The Point* (*The PowerPoint)
The innovative comedy mind behind Modern Life Is Goodish, Are You Dave Gorman? and Googlewhack Adventure is back with a brand new live show that promises more of his unique blend of stand-up comedy and visual story-telling.
*Yes. That’s right. It’s a PowerPoint presentation. We know what you’re thinking. But don’t worry… You won’t need to take notes and you almost certainly won’t be tested on it later.
Wed 18 November 8pm
One Man Breaking Bad – The Unauthorised Parody
Sixty Awesome Episodes. One Awesome Show. Yo!
LA actor Miles Allen smacks the senses with his super-charged, hilariously accurate renditions of all the iconic characters, including Walter White, Jesse, Saul, Skyler, Hank, Walt Junior, Mike and Gus Fring.
With over a million hits on YouTube, and sell-out runs at comedy festivals in Melbourne and Edinburgh, Allen’s incredible impersonations break all six seasons down into one, exhilarating, uproarious tour-de-force parody performance.
Sun 29 November 8pm, Studio
Nish Kumar: Long Word… Long Word… Blah Blah Blah… I’m So Clever
A stand-up comedy show for people who like stand-up comedy shows by a man that does stand-up comedy.
This is Nish’s first solo tour. You may have watched him support Milton Jones or David O’Doherty, or seen him on The Alternative Comedy Experience curated by Stewart Lee or heard him on The Josh Widdicombe Show or The Now Show. Alternatively you could have just sat next to him at Nandos.
Suitable for ages 15 plus
Fri 29 January 8pm
Ed Byrne: Outside, Looking In
That bloke. You know. The Irish guy. No, not the bald one. The other one. You know him. The one Carol from work really likes. Wait, that might be Jason Byrne. Anyway. Funny chap. Has a new show!
