Kicking off the evening will be the fabulous Tom Wrigglesworth.
[260830 Tom Wrigglesworth]
Tom Wrigglesworth is an established Stand-Up comedian, Radio and TV presenter and voice-over artist from Sheffield, England.
With a disarmingly charming delivery and unforgettable appearance, this Yorkshire funny man became a national have-a-go-hero when he rescued a little old lady from the jaws of a Virgin train ticket inspector; only to be arrested for begging. His subsequent story of the event secured Tom several awards including the Chortle Best Show Award, and a nomination for the main Edinburgh Comedy Award.
This led to a sell out tour of the UK, and runs at the New Zealand Comedy Festival and prestigious Montreal Comedy Festival.
Following this, Tom recorded two series of Tom Wrigglesworths Open Letters for BBC Radio 4, tackling consumer issues in his own hilarious way and winning a highly acclaimed Sony Award for best Radio Comedy along the way.
His next radio project, Tom Wrigglesworths Hang Ups for BBC Radio 4 is currently in its second series and focuses on telephone conversations with his parents.
As a natural and engaging television presenter, Tom put his technical background to use when he appeared on Electric Dreams for BBC 2, advising a modern family as they fast forwarded through three decades of technology. He then presented Engineering Giants, also for BBC 2, which saw Tom climbing aboard an oil platform, servicing a passenger ferry and dismantling a jumbo-jet whilst interviewing various engineers to keep the viewers informed as the three major strip downs unfolded.
Further television credits include being a regular contributor on The Discovery Channel where he explains the science behind crowd sourced stunts and experiments on the popular show You have been warned
He is also known for his uncanny resemblance to Green Bay Packers Quarter back Aaron Rodgers and worked with NFL films to create The Incredible Mr Wrigglesworth. This short film which featured Tom performing in Green Bay, receiving the key to the city and coming his face to face with his doppleganger became a viral You Tube hit.
Since winning the Channel 4 new comedian competition, So You Think Youre Funny in 2003, Tom is now firmly established as one of the most original, talented and respected comedians on the UK and International comedy circuit.

Closing the show will be the Brilliant Andrew Watts.
[260830 Andrew Watts]
Andrew Watts has a distinctive style and very original material. His posh boy humour is intelligent without distancing himself from the audience. Lawyer turned comedian, Andrew is extremely likeable and invariably wins a crowd over as he canters, like an apologetic tsunami, through challenging subjects.
Previously a solicitor in London, he is now a full-time comedian and has written and performed four full-length Edinburgh shows, I Wish I Could Be Like Andrew Watts, Born To Be Mild, Feminism for Chaps and. most recently, How To Build A Chap. All of them received five- or four-star reviews.
His distinctive style stands out a winning mixture of pomposity, insecurity and emotional incompetence, while the fury-inducing importance he places on the trivial makes for a winning comic stance
Chortle
One of my favourite up-and-coming comedians, who looks and acts like hes in middle management and whose distaste for everything laddish and fondness for cricket analogies cloaks some darker writing Theres intelligent wit, honesty and more interesting and provocative thoughts in his show than many comics manage in a decade
The Scotsman
Lovers of stand-up laced with a cerebral cutting-edge should, without further prevarication, flock to his show.

Dominics act is packed full of jokes, gags, banter, stories and a bit of daft comedy magic that involves the audience and always takes the roof off. He also beats the world record for speed balloon modelling every show its hilarious and a must-see!
With almost 20 years experience on the UK circuit hes a safe pair of hands. Hes cheeky, charming, full of energy and hilarious.
Theres a naughty twinkle in his eyes but his act is warm, personal and inoffensive.
