Custard Comedy

Fri 9 October 2020

Storey’s Field Centre

To allow for appropriate social distancing, capacity will be strictly limited to 60. The show will start earlier than usual, at 7pm. This will allow us to add a second show – starting at 9.15pm – if needed.

Custard Comedy return to Storey’s Field Centre, with a stellar line-up.

Roger Monkhouse is one of the most original and distinctive acts on the comedy scene. A consummate stand-up who employs a deadly combination of charm and menace to exert a masterful control over any audience. A highly original and quirky performer, Roger’s trademark stage-prowling style and curious, inimitable manner have established him as one of the hottest names on the comedy circuit.

Alasdair Beckett-King is a legendary comedian, in that there is little historical evidence that he exists. But he does exist. Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2017, Alasdair has featured on BBC radio as a comedian and sketch writer, and performed stand-up across the UK, at Glastonbury, Citadel Fest, the Udderbelly Southbank and at the Edinburgh Fringe. He knows quite a lot about 19th century magicians.

Kate McCabe has been gigging on this side of the Atlantic for several years after starting her comedy career in NYC. She also performs with improv troupe ComedySportz Manchester and regularly appears on Fab Radio’s The Gay Agenda and on Gaydio’s The Exchange.

The evening’s compere will be Jonathan Elston. At just 28 years of age, Jonathan is a fresh, punchy, gag-driven comic who combines sharp joke writing and quirky observations with a youthful likeability that charms his audience and endears him to any room.

Cost: £11.00 in advance
