Brian + Krysstal

Brian + Krysstal

Blending music, deadpun comedy and silliness, they have been working together on the London Comedy Circuit for the last eight years.

The Real Brian Blessed

The Real Brian Blessed

This is the guy that the one time Z-Cars and Barbarella bird was always trying to play ... watch this video for a clue

Richard McDougall

The Magic Circle wrote that "Richard delivers intimate, intensely focussed and exquisite magic". Richard has performed for the Queen, Prince Charles, Paul McCartney and now Nunhead!

Sarah-Louise Young

Sarah-Louise Young

Smart, confident… She makes all the right moves (SCOTSMAN). Casulty & Holby City actress does stand-up.

Donald Mac

Six foot one and a big Black bundle of comedy fun. Donald Mack is one of the new generation of Black stand-up comedians. Old enough to know better, but young enough to not give a shit! Donald Mack is a unique comedian.

 
There’s live music from the Cabaret’s resident band, headed by Julian Burdock «more info». The doors open at 6.45pm and a hot food buffet will be available at a credit crunch £6 . The special menu is:

  • Spicy lentil soup 
  • Meat bolognaise served with penne pasta or
  • Ratatouille with mozzarella slices & herbs, served with penne pasta (v)
  • Crusty bread will be available with all dishes

We had a great launch night on March 6th. Karl Edrik compered Frank Sanazi, Steve Parry, Rob Broderick, Sarah-Louise-Young, Ali Cook and Nina Conti.

In terms of performance, I really do not know how it could've been better. Don't take my word for it, though, find one of the 120 people who attended. The room was packed and there was a great atomosphere.

It's now all about March 20th. The next show will be better. Expect to hear a lot more of them because their going to play for longer before the sheduled start time and also during the intervals.

We've got another birthday and another massive evening of entertaiment: Karl Edrik, Logan Murray, The Real Brian Blessed, Donald Mack, Richard Mcdougall, Sarah-Louise-Young followed by the rather splendid Brian and Krysstal. And, rumour has it, the Polar Bear is back!
