Life can’t just be the humdrum, the mundane and the routine before the inevitable slide to disease, decay and death.

A forest canopy opening onto a huge vista would be enchanting for some but my ancestors wandered in the desert for forty years, I think we’ve been outdoors enough. Others get their fix from the spiritual but I’ve been harbouring a grudge against God since my mother stopped me going to Arsenal after my Barmitzvah. Forty nine years ago. ’God will be watching’ she said. Well, at least he got to see the game. The point is, life could be so much better so I’m on the lookout. Come and join me on the hunt.

Simon Evans: Simon Evans is Staring at the Sun
Staring at the Sun sees Simon Evans (Live at the Apollo, Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, Simon Evans Goes to Market, One Person Found This Helpful) squinting at an uncertain future, revisiting the blue remembered hills of his youth and trying to stay human as the world around him gets smarter. With the AI singularity looming and “reality” feeling increasingly unstable, Evans looks ahead to the coming shockwaves of technology, and back to the analogue pleasures of hitch-hiking, pub bets, and getting properly lost. Turning his famously dry, surgically precise style on the big modern questions: Are we living in a computer simulation? What happens when your body starts issuing software updates you didn’t request? And is staring straight at a solar eclipse, against expert advice, actually an act of courageous self-sacrifice on the road to true enlightenment? Part philosophical exploration, part nostalgic joyride, Staring at the Sun is a hilarious analysis of reality and trust from a man desperately trying to keep his balance while the floor keeps moving. The tone is unmistakably Evans: provocative, literate, and playfully combative, but also soaked in self-awareness. Evans draws on theories propounded by philosophers and mystics since the days of Plato and Ecclesiastes, casting himself as a public intellectual but constantly undercutting his points with brutally funny domestic truths. Simon Evans is one of the UK’s most respected and best loved comedians who has been at the top of his game for over twenty-five years. His TV credits include two appearances on BBC One’s Live at the Apollo, one on Michael McIntyre’s Roadshow, and a season of Channel 4’s Stand Up for the Week. On BBC Radio 4 his series Simon Evans Goes to Market, delighting audiences with his witty and insightful take on the comedically-unpromising territory of economics, has had six seasons. He is also a regular on Radio 4’s The News Quiz, and various other panel games, and from 1998 to 2002 wrote and hosted eight series of the news satire, The Way It Is. He also stars in One Person Found This Helpful – a Radio 4 show he co-devised with Jason Hazely and Pozzitive Productions, that has fun with on-line customer reviews and hosted Headliners – a regular preview of the following day’s newspapers with two other comedians on GB News. Evans is also in demand as a columnist and has written extensively for The Spectator, The Telegraph and Spiked.

Delving into the history of the forecast and the extraordinary people who made it, Charlie explains what all those curious phrases really mean, celebrates its wide cultural impact, shares riproaring adventures from his own extraordinary journey through the 31 sea areas and presents his case for the shipping forecast being our finest achievement. Inspired by Charlie’s bestselling book, which has sold more than a quarter-of-a-million copies, this pacy, moving and hilarious show is selling out theatres up and down the land as it takes you all the way from Viking to South-East Iceland. Attention All Shipping guarantees the shipping forecast will never sound the same again. “Charlie Connelly is one of the funniest people I have ever had the pleasure of sitting in a studio with…He has a natural wit that doesn’t get crushed by an over-zealous ego with a lovely personality attached to it.” Fi Glover, broadcaster “Charlie is always warm, funny and engaging…I actually sent him a fan letter - and I've never done that to anyone in my life before.” Bernard Sumner, New Order “I can thoroughly recommend an evening spent in the company of the very funny and very lovely Charlie Connelly whose knowledge of what I call ‘the ships’ is excellent. Sou’westers optional.” Corrie Corfield, BBC Radio 4

Oasish

Oasish

3 Oct 2026 - 19 Feb 2027

Since forming in 2004, Oasish have taken the tribute world by storm. The attention to detail is incredible and many have hailed them as being better than the real thing! They have performed at Wembley Stadium, The National Indoor Arena, Manchester Academy, and are the only band to perform at the now world famous Glastonbudget Festival EVERY single year it’s been running. Oasish don't use cheap imitation copies of the real band’s instruments or clothes either! The "Noel" actually uses the exact same model of guitar, a Gibson ES355, that the real Noel Gallagher plays. They are also no strangers to the TV screens, having appeared on The One Show (BBC), The Gadget Show (Channel 5), Inside Out (ITV), GMTV (ITV), Sky News, The Culture Show (BBC) and numerous other broadcasts all across the television network. They have worked alongside big names such as Peter Kay, Jools Holland, Clint Boon (Inspiral Carpets), Dodgy and even performed with Shaun Ryder of The Happy Mondays! Oasish are Europe's leading tribute to Oasis, flawlessly re-creating the looks, sound and attitude of the originals.
Alfie Moore: Acopalypse Now

Alfie Moore: Acopalypse Now

1 Oct 2026 - 17 Jul 2027

The Four Horsemen of Rising Crime, Global Warming, AI and Culture Wars are galloping towards us. Are we on the road to hell? And can we avoid the potholes? In his brand new tour show 'Fair Cop' Alfie has the antidote to the breakdown of law and order, fake news and the price of baked beans. Somewhere in a parallel universe little Alfie’s natural comedic performance skills were recognised by his doting parents who encouraged and developed his blossoming talent. After several years as a stage school brat Alfie’s angelic face was launched on stage and screen and the rest is history. Meanwhile, in this universe Alfie Moore was told to stop messing about in class before being ‘encouraged’ into the grinding, grimy world of an apprenticeship in the Sheffield steelworks. When recession hit he traded steel for copper by joining Humberside Police. In his 40s the two universes collided when Alfie made a bid for showbiz success – but unfortunately 30 years of shift-work and being punched in the face quite a lot, had left him with ‘a face for radio’. A face not so much ‘lived in’ as inhabited by a settlement of squatters with little regard to property maintenance and repair.

Lost Voice Guy: the Cerebral Palsy Puppet
Britain's Got Talent winner Lost Voice Guy is back on the road after 5 years with his brand new show, The Cerebral Palsy Puppet, mainly because he's spent all his benefit money on stuff he didn't need, just to annoy the Daily Mail. Since becoming the first comedian to win BGT, he has been congratulated in the street for winning The X Factor, accused online of having a "backstage comedian" secretly writing his Jokes, and told he must live in a mansion at the taxpayer's expense (it's a Castle, actually). Armed with his trusty iPad and absolutely no filter, the man with cerebral palsy who also suffers from being a Geordie takes aim at talent shows, dating disasters, Jehovah's Witnesses and the Department for Work and Pensions' hold music. Naughty, cheeky and mischievous as ever, this is stand-up from a comedian who struggles To stand up...And nobody's pulling his strings. As seen on Live at the Apollo, The Last Leg and the Royal Variety Performance, and heard on his Radio 4 sitcom Ability. Never seen on The X Factor, whatever anyone tells you. "Finding humour in strange places is one of Lost Voice Guy's strengths." 5 The Guardian "Sharply deals with misconceptions about his disability...that's stimulating, moving and amusing." 4 The Times "Funny, personal, occasionally shocking and frequently mischievous."
