Kiri Pritchard-McLean : Hysterical Woman
Chortle Award-nominated comedian Kiri Pritchard McLean performs her inadvisably ambitious debut hour, tackling genetics, gender and being a comedian who happens to be a woman. Also, she sticks her white, middle class nose into racial inequality. (I know, it has nothing to do with her, but she won’t be told.)
Join her for an hour of whipsmart stand-up that’s as funny as it is clever – or turn up to see if she commits an accidental hate crime.

Harriet Dyer: Work In Progress
As heard on BBC Radio 4 Extra and BBC Ouch.
If you like your comedy inventive, whimsical and full of tender moments, be still your beating heart this is indeed for you.
“A bundle of whimsical hilarity… a breath of fresh air… will have you in stitches” Broadway Baby
“Instinctively funny” Steve Bennett, Chortle
Fresh and unique, it’s a pleasure to spend time in Harriet’s company as she weaves her surreal and hilarious tales. An imitable raconteur, it’s easy to see how this new act is making a big noise.Harriet already has heads turning with her baffling tales of a misspent youth, and bewildering personal tales that are so ridiculous, they must be true. Establishing her own style of material and delivery after such a short time, means Harriet’s stock can only continue to rise.A unique comic voice, Dyer charms any room with matchless material, an offbeat stage presence and a truly whirlwind fizz of energy.A strong You Tube following has emerged for Harriet’s channel; interviews with comedians and clips of comics car sharing have been given a unique twist with Harriet at the helm, and there’s plenty more to come.
