A
event
on Sunday 29th March. The event starts at 19:30.
Witness two haggard stallions of the uk comedy scene Paul Hilleard & Danny Clives as they each perform 40 minutes of above average material, watch them struggle not to be hacks, as they cling to the small, dwindling amount of clout they have. This is the big time.
Paul Hilleard (BBC New Comedian of the Year 2024, Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award 2025 Finalist, As seen on Comic Relief 2025)
‘Energy and delivery on stage absolutely fantastic'- Babatunde Aleshe
'Top rate comedy' - Spencer Jones
‘Uniquely absurd observations… he projects the appealing image of a man not too successful at life but still clinging to hope… precision and obscurity.’ - Chortle
Danny Clives (Alumni of the Pleasance Comedy Reserve and Soho Theatre's Comedy Labs, 2025 Semi-finalist of British Comedian Of The Year, tour support for for Uncle Roger at the Hammersmith Apollo and the London Palladium.)
'Danny Clives turns life's struggles into understated, brilliantly observed gags' - Joe Lycett
