LAURA LEXX

Comedian, author and actor Laura Lexx is vivacious, impassioned, intelligent and one of the best headliners on the comedy scene.

Following her Live at The Apollo (BBC) debut Laura received an unprecedented reaction both from the live crowd and audiences at home, which lead to her appearing in shows such as Mock The Week (BBC), Hypothetical (Dave) and Celebrity Mastermind (BBC) to name a few.

JOSH WELLER

Weller’s high energy brand of cleverly self-deprecating stand-up developed him a loyal fanbase for his viral musical videos and online content, with views in the millions which includes mockumentaries, sketches, professional trolling, animated stand-up comedy shorts, character work, and more.

He has written for Spitting Image and Alex Edelman’s BBC Radio 4 show Peer Group. He also wrote the jokes on McFly’s guitar plectrums on their 2022 arena tour. His dark comedy graphic novel ‘Die Already’ was published by CollegeHumor in 2019.
