A event on Wednesday 22nd May. The event starts at 19:30.
On Wednesday the 22nd May, Alpha will be transforming into a comedy club for the evening. For just £6 you will be treated to 6 exceptional acts! Doors will officially open from 7pm (but we're open from midday anyway..) with the first act kicking off at 7:30pm.
As a small venue, tickets are extremely limited and we expect them to sell out fast so get in quick!!
A bit about the acts:
Kev Mud
Current UK Pun Champion and rising star of the UK Comedy Scene, Kev Mud is “one to watch” (Chortle) and “one of the best new acts in the last 20 years” (Spiky Mike, Funhouse Comedy). He brings his experiences as a homeless ex-addict to a performance that has been described as “honest, charming and humorous” (British Comedy Guide), by delivering his stories and cleverly written pieces “with charm and wit” (Chortle).
In only a short amount of time, Kev Mud has been a finalist in British Comedian Of The Year, beating established acts by winning all of his heats on the way, performed his own scripts on TV alongside the likes of Josh Pugh, Mark Steel, Ian Stone, Elis James and Sooz Kempner, performed everywhere from Glastonbury Festival to The Comedy Store, and been the subject of numerous articles in the comedy press.
Kev’s “most original and exciting” (Spiky Mike, Funhouse Comedy) style along with his “original voice” (Andrew White, The Bill Murray), make him a sure fire “crowd pleaser” (British Comedy Guide).
Kev has only been going for a year, but he's already setting the scene alight. Not only has he made his way to the final round of multiple competitions, but he has already played on bills alongside the likes of Frankie Boyle, Russell Howard, Ed Gamble, Al Murray, Shaparak Khorsandi, Kiri Pritchard-McClean, Mark Simmons, Bobby Mair, Larry Dean, Jeff Innocent, Phil Nichol, Andrew Mensah, Jarred Christmas, Matt Price and Harriet Dyer amongst others.
TV appearances alongside Josh Pugh, Ian Stone, Tom Deacon, Mark Simmons, Mark Steel, Ellis James, Sooz Kempner, amongst others with more to come in the year.
Chris Yates
Hailing from Malvern via Birmingham and the Isle of Wight, failed musician and bedraggled millennial layabout Chris Yates combines a moth-eaten shambolic demeanour with off-beat takes on bizarre topics well outside his limited intellect. Winning 'Best New Act' at the Midlands Comedy Awards 2022, Chris has been delighting and bemusing audiences in equal measure.
June Tuesday
With whip-smart jokes and hilarious anecdotes, June is quickly making a name for herself as a stalwart fixture of the emerging new wave of British trans comics.

Harry Allmark

Harry also performs as an improviser with Degrees of Error and has performed in multiple Edinburgh fringes.
“An annoying man with nothing funny to say” - Jan T, Google Reviews (still gave three stars)
Emma Hughes
Chaotic and charismatic Emma is the ultimate antipodean Dream Queen. Telling tangential tales, you're bound to be swept up, even if you're not sure by what...
