DOMINIC WOODWARD Dominic is always in demand on the professional stand-up circuit and performs in comedy clubs all over the UK. Dominic’s acting background shines through as he tells hilarious stories about his everyday life and brings to life the quirky people he meets. Always in demand as headliner, support and compare he performs regularly in many large UK clubs. “Insightful and humorous observations.” Guardian “Effortless delivery” The Times “Engaging material” Manchester Evening News “Dominic has a keen eye for observational comedy and genuine funny bones.” bbc.co.uk CAIMH MCDONNELL Genial white-haired Irishman Caimh (pronounced 'Queeve') McDonnell has quickly established himself as one of the circuit's most amiable and friendly acts. Equally at home performing a set or compering, Caimh is a regular at most major UK venues, and his gentle yet incisive humour makes any audience feel involved whilst playing with their expectations - sucking them in with his chatty, playful stage presence before metaphorically slapping them in the face with an unexpected punchline. "a standout act" - Daily Telegraph "blessed with natural charm" - BBC "superb" - Manchester Evening News "chatty, charming and loveable" - ents24.com "downright hilarious … laid back and relaxed humour" - Last Laugh Comedy STEVE WILLIAMS "The Prodigy" - The Independent Chortle Award nominee and BBC New Comedy Award Finalist, Steve Williams is one of the most exciting and electrifying live performers of the new comedy generation. Steve never fails to surprise and engage audiences with his hybrid of bizarre stories, larger than life physicality, spontaneous improvisation and his off-the-wall take on everyday life. His three solo shows at the Edinburgh Fringe have garnered considerable critical success. Steve premiered his first solo stand-up show Steve Williams: Excitable at the Edinburgh fringe in 2006, he returned in 2007 with Steve Williams: Binge Thinking, which was followed by a national tour of Edinburgh and Beyond. Steve’s TV credits include appearances Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, Edinburgh and Beyond and The Comedy Store for Paramount and he recently appeared on Dave Gorman’s Absolute Radio Show (Absolute Radio) and 7 Day Sunday (Radio 5Live). Steve is also a core writer on Russell Howard’s Good News on BBC3. “Williams presents a very slick show.” Eddie Harrison, Metro “Steve Williams has proven his lauders correct and come of age as one of Britain’s best stand-up performers…effortless audience interaction, inventive and adaptable use of his material and some of the best natural improvisation you will see at the Fringe this year…an hour filled with a constant torrent of laughter.” Chris Williams, Fest "Seriously recommended viewing, immerse yourself in his world" - Manchester City Life Magazine Checkout Stve’s clip on BBC1 Michael McInytre Comedy Roadshow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
