A night of free-thinking standup comedy with comedians who don’t self-censor.

Alistair Williams
Alistair won Comedian of the Year 2023 - as voted by a live audience, not comedy industry wonks. Despite this, Alistair is excluded from many comedy clubs and banned from YouTube, Alistair Williams is utterly counter-cultural and bloody hilarious. . Here’s clip of Alistair at the London club

Kelli! Taylor
Kelli! is a celebrity hairdresser from Hull. She lives, laughs, and loves.

She cares about everything and to show support to a cause, she often puts a filter on her Facebook profile picture and sets that for the week. She’s one of life’s givers.

Jonathan Kogan
Launching himself into the world of stand-up over the last 2 years with a genuine love for and fascination with comedy, he forges his sharp material from a combination of astute observations, self-deprecating Jewish humour and unique one-liners, all with a natural anti-authoritarian slant. Here’s a clip of Jonathan at the London club

Plus famous big name mystery guest!

Crazy Ginger Cabbie
He is a cabbie and he is very funny.

The play: Craig Kitman MP didn’t sign up for this.

It’s been 18 months since Labour’s “loveless landslide” swept him into Parliament. 18 months of voting for things he doesn’t understand. Constituents he can’t help. Abuse. Failure. Late-night drinking sessions.

And so we find him.

One man. One constituency office. Wondering how he got here - and how the hell he gets out.

Then terrier-like journo Abi McCormack calls…

Hope to see you there,

Alan Francis
After winning Channel 4’s So You Think You’re Funny? at the Edinburgh Festival, Alan became a regular performer on the UK and international comedy circuits and has performed stand-up on TV a number of times.

Dane Frisby
Having cut his teeth on the Estonian comedy scene during a visit to the Baltic states, and subsequently gigged across Europe and with some of Ireland’s premier comics, Irish comedian Dane Frisby is a rising talent and he’s flying over especially to do Comedy Unleashed.

Lewis Schaffer
Lewis was the darling of the demised satirical news show Headliners. We don’t know what he’s been doing since, but we’ll probably find out. If you don’t know Lewis, he’s a top New York comedian who settled in the UK. He is particularly loved by women of a certain age - charming, unpredictable, spontaneously surreal and utterly maverick. Here’s a clip of Lewis at the Scottish Hate Crime gig.

Dominic Frisby
Dominic is a libertarian version of Billy Bragg (with a sense of humour). Dominic’s recent video ‘We’re All far Right Now, was retweeted by Elon Musk and got 60 million views. Dominic will perform new songs and some old favourites.

Andrew Lawrence
Andrew has been cancelled again. No-one should be cancelled for making jokes, so we have booked him. Lawrence first tested the limits of the liberal comedy establishment 11 years ago with a Facebook post in which he excoriated “out of touch, smug, superannuated, overpaid TV comics with their cosy lives in their west-London ivory towers”. Another blow to Lawrence’s conventional career prospects came in 2021 after he joked about England’s penalties defeat in the Euros final. “All I’m saying is, the white guys scored,” he posted — the context being a tournament in which players took the knee during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement. Andrew is a brilliant comic. Don't miss him.

Eddy Brimson
Eddy Brimson is top headline act on both the UK and International circuits. He has played festivals worldwide, from Edinburgh to Auckland, The Alps to Australia. Eddy is also a bestselling author on football fan culture, with over 500,000 sales worldwide. He has also written two novels: Hooligan, and the critically acclaimed Naughty Boy.

Tania Edwards

Jim invites you to join him for another evening of rip-roaring, grown-up comedy.

Host of Free Speech Nation and regualr on the satirical newspaper review show Headliners on GB News, Josh weaves lengthy tales out of everyday life that are utterly hilarious. He’s a brilliant storyteller. Here’s clip of Josh from the London club

Nicholas de Santo

Conservative (with a proper big C) Iranian Italian stand-up comedian. One of the most popular acts on the Comedy Unleashed YouTube channel. Nicholas does new material about the issues of the day every time he performs.

Jonathan Kogan

Launching himself into the world of stand-up over the last 2 years with a genuine love for and fascination with comedy, he forges his sharp material from a combination of astute observations, self-deprecating Jewish humour and unique one-liners, all with a natural anti-authoritarian slant. Here’s a clip of Jonathan at the London club

JoJo Sutherland - MC

British Comedian of the Year Finalist '22 "Jojo is bloody, bloody brilliant" - Kate Copstick

The line-up is..

Alistair Williams

Alistair Williams is utterly counter-cultural and bloody hilarious. He always does new material pointing at the madness that surrounds us. Here’s clip of Alistair at the London club

Josephine Lacey

This is Josephine's forst time at Comedy Unleashed and she comes highly recommended. Josephine draws on her Jamaican-Irish heritage and life experience to deliver her material with an honest humour and a natural raw energy. She has the guile and wisdom of someone that has been there, done it and bought the t-shirt.

Francis Foster

Francis is the co-host of popular YouTube and podcast TRIGGERNomentry and guest of GB New’s ‘Free Speech Nation’. He’s a top stand-up comic too. Here’s a clip of Francis at the London club

Wilson

"Smart, charismatic and a huge hit with audiences. Wilson is fast becoming a great name to watch out for"

Bruce Devlin - Compere

A man of delightfully acerbic wit and the sharpest of lines. ‘A tongue so sharp he could peel a king Edward’ **** the Scotsman

Backyard Comedy Club, Bethnal Green E2 0EL

The line-up is..

Scott Capurro

If someone tells Scott to avoid a subject, he goes straight to it. We bloody love him. "He's evil and should be forced to leave the country" - Daily Mirror. "Vaingloriously poisonous" - Scotsman. "He’s a right dirty bugger and I love him" Andy Shaw

Geoff Norcott

As a right-winger, Geoff Norcott is a rare voice on the BBC. Having appeared on Live at the Apollo, Mash Report, Mock the Week and Question Time he’s built up a significant live following. Operating outside the usual comedic commentary on politics and social issues, Geoff has carved a real niche for himself.

Danny Posthill

Britain’s Got Talent finalist and utterly brilliant impressionist. Danny has got Donald Trump down to a tee (see the video below)

Intel Lady

Intel Lady has hit the scene with her parodies of Angela “Us Labours” Raynor, Meghan Markle, Just Stop Oil activists. She has a cult following on TikTok and YouTube. We have no idea who she’ll turn up as.

Ben Adams

One of those faces that "you know him from somewhere".

Stephen Grant - compere

A hugely popular MC at the London club. Stephen an energy and intellect and won multiple awards as a result. He makes the place buzz and he has an opinion on everything and everyone.

Tony Law
Tony is surreal. He has an compellingly obscure take on life and is comforted by the bizarre and surreal. The Comedy Unleashed audience at the London club love him. Check him out: Here’s a video of Tony Law

Jay Mack
Jay is a Leeds based comedian. Nihilistic, Uncouth and as dark as a basement flat. Self proclaimed Best Female Comedian of the year 2023.

Adam Coumas
Adam is a comedian who disputes the status quo. As heard on the BBC. Playing to audiences across the UK, he tackles fiercely divisive topics but subdues them with delightfully dark indifference. “Domineering presence, with a taut, muscular delivery” - Steve Bennett, Chortle

And more comedians to be added to the lineup soon.

All the best,
