Jeff Innocent
Looking like the bouncer he used to be, Jeff brings you comedy with menace. Retiring from window dressing, in the 80s, he went on to gain an MA in History & Philosophy arriving on the comedy circuit 10 years ago. A comic’s comic, he’s universally acknowledged as one of the most consistent and reliable acts on the circuit, at a time when too many comics are floppy-fringed students or shiny-faced toffs, his remains a voice of reason – and a very funny one at that.
Marian Pashley
An established comedian, and festival veteran, Marian is known for her caustic humour and dry delivery. Last year she played the lead in Radio 4’s commissioned play ‘No Future in Eternity’ at the Gilded Balloon and has appeared in sell-out sketch shows such as ‘Six Pack’ and ‘Stand-Up Women’ as well as her first one woman show.
Mark Walker
Starting out in Cabaret Clubs, Mark’s innovative and creative routines brought him instant success winning the Daily Mirror’s Young Entertainer of the Year award in 1988. He’s topped the bill at the Comedy Store in London, on The Jongleurs Circuit and had two sell-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. He makes regular appearances on the stage and TV, being a regular on the Les Dennis Laughter Show for BBC1. A truly versatile and complete performer on every level.
Kevin Shepherd – MC
A regular on the circuit, Kevin’s friendly face and manic energy have great audience appeal. In 2002 he was a finalist in the Laughing Horse New Act of the Year and runner up in the Krater New Act of the Year. His first Edinburgh Show ‘Kevin Shepherd: Comics Die in Hot Cars’ was very well received.
