TV COMEDIANS COME TO GRANTHAM GUILDHALL.
Funhouse Comedy Club returns to the Guildhall Arts Centre Ballroom on Thursday June 20th, for a fun-filled night of laughter.
Topping the bill is the compelling and frank comedian and writer, Daliso Chaponda who came 3rd in 'Britain's Got Talent' in 2017 and then landed himself his own stand-up comedy show on BBC Radio 4. Hailing from Malawi, where his father is a government minister he started his comedy career in Canada with the much-admired one man show 'Feed This Black Man'. With his ability to talk about anything from politics and religion to romance, he amuses his audiences with his distinctive accent and unique outlook on the world.
Opening the night will be actor, writer and stand-up the optimistic and exuberant Laura Lexx, who has appeared on 'Live at the Apollo', with her delightfully funny take on things. She immediately charms everyone with her quick quips and is happy to discuss anything. Her distinctive style is fantastically offbeat and hilarious, as well as both cheeky and charming, delivering even her sarcasm and irony with a sparkly grin.
Also appearing is the deadpan Peter Brush, who was a finalist in the BBC New Comedy Award 2013 and has written for BBC Radio 4's 'The News Quiz'; as well as supporting Arthur Smith and Stephen K Amos on tour. Sometimes referred to as a geek, his mind seems to find the oddities in 'normality'! His imaginative use of words and strange lines of thought, results in unique and sharp material.
Compere for the night will be the amiable and animated Spiky Mike.
Tickets are £11 in advance.
7.30pm doors,
