In aid of St Giles

Comedian, Singer and
Entertainer
Johnny
Cowling, 36, has been an entertainer for over ten
years with his unique blend of humour, music and a
rare affinity to bond with his audience. Coming
from Cornwall he has been compared to the comedy
genius of Jethro, shares a lot in common with the
natural warmth of Michael Barrymore, belts out a
song almost as good as Elvis and has even been
described as having a ‘spoonful of Tommy Cooper’.
Hugely
popular in the South West of the UK, Johnny has
recently ventured further afield as a support act
for Paddy McGuiness on Tour and proved his ability
to entertain audiences well beyond his home town of
St Merryn.
"One of
our great undiscovered comedy talents....He gave us an hour
of pure genius. He was brilliant - a true entertainer, who
could make anybody laugh.” Fern Britton, presenter
‘This Morning’, ‘Celebrity Mr and Mrs’

- 4th September 2010

David Whitney and
MC Paul B Edwards

9.00pm Start.
Ticket Price £10.00
Robbie Bonham has been doing standup for a couple
of years now, only getting into it at the ripe old age
of 33. He now plays regularly in the Capital Comedy
Club, The Comedy Cellar and various other Dublin gigs,
and last
year was voted the Capital Comedy Club's best support
act. He was also in the final of the Bulmers Comedy
festival for the second year running. He recently played
to a sellout audience in the Empire Comedy Club in

"Quirky, zany, and, most importantly, funny" -
Capital magazine
"The next Jo Brand" - Maeve Higgins
Scottish born Comic David Whitney got his first
gig at the Friars Club Beverly Hills as a result of a
series of lies that meant he couldn't get out of it. It
went very well and on his return home decided take it up
full time, only to find Londoners a lot harder to please
than the Yanks. Since then he has be performing
prolifically all over the UK in pubs, clubs, theatres
and corporate gigs for Coutts Bank and Tottenham
Football Club (whom he is not a fan as Aberdeen is the
football team of his choice). David’s material is a fine
blend of political satire and pure filth, making him the
thinking persons comic. So long as that person is
thinking of something really dirty at the
time.
"you can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him"
(Reg D. Hunter)
"His
trajectory is perfect. He squeezes the laughter out
of audiences. He is the squeeze person." (Eddie
Izzard)
Self styled 'Rock & Roll Poet and comedian Paul B.
Edwards is a tireless gigger and his unique brand of
songs/jokes/poems and general banter (“His
act is a treasure chest packed to bursting with little
gems"
) have made him a great favourite in the comedy clubs of
the UK. He promotes and hosts his own monthly shows, is
a regular at the Jongleurs Comedy Clubs and is a
favourite at festivals including Reading and V Festival
Leeds. Corporate clients include Round Table, Rotary
Club, Siemens, Hertfordshire Constabulary and British
Telecom

Al Pitcher
- 2nd October 2010
Doors open 8.30pm -
9.00pm Start. Ticket Price £10.00
"The Al Pitcher
Picture Show" - New Zealander Al Pitcher
started comedy in 1999, reaching the finals of the So
You Think You’re Funny? new talent competition. He then
decided to capitalise on his growing reputation – by
becoming a vegetable picker in Naas, Ireland. A couple
of years later he returned to stand up, making the final
of the Daily Telegraph Open Mic awards.
Since
then he has become a regular fixture at the UK’s top
clubs. In 2004 he made his solo Edinburgh fringe debut,
and now has four full-length shows to his name.
He was
invited to appear at Montreal’s prestigious Just for
Laughs Festival in 2007 and has performed at both the
Melbourne and New Zealand comedy festivals.
Pitcher
was also the voice of the Fosters Lager commercials, has
written for BBC Radio 1 and is an experienced TV
warm-up.
‘Pitcher sits
firmly in the improvising, rambling, freewheeling comedy
camp inhabited by the likes of Ross Noble and Eddie
Izzard. However, unlike both of them, Pitcher is one of
the best-kept secrets on the comedy scene. He is a
diamond as yet not hewn from the circuit rock. But it's
only a matter of time’
Time Out 2008
‘Catch him whilst he’s cheap!’
Evening Standard
‘He lives dangerously on stage, taking risks and
setting up challenges many would fear to face. For
that he deserves the applause he got.’
Theatre Review (NZ)
‘Hilarious…Al Pitcher is my new favourite
comedian. He is a huge talent.’
Edfringe.com
‘I was laughing uncontrollably. This very funny
man can take you on a journey into the realms of
almost insanity without leaving your chair.’
