25 April 2026 Line Up (Subject to change)

• Matt Bragg

Matt Bragg is a master of delivery, with timing that keeps you hanging on the edge, and then the edge again. His dry humour and subtle anecdotes leave the audience listening intently wanting more of the cool, calm and collected comedian. Matt has been performing stand up all over the country for the last 5 years. With a unique, low energy, deadpan style and meticulously crafted material he has been gaining acclaim from audiences, promoters and comedians alike. As well as performing at some of the largest clubs in the UK, supporting Harry Hill, Lloyd Griffith (Soccer AM) and Phoenix Night’s Clinton Baptiste on tour. He was also selected for Just the Tonic’s Big Value showcase at the Edinburgh Festival in 2019. He has been nominated in the prestigious Leicester Mercury’s Comedian of the Year along with becoming a finalist and winner respectively in Manford’s New Act of The Year and Bury Met New Act of The Year.

• Garrett Millerick

Garrett Millerick is an acclaimed stand up comedian, writer and director most recently seen performing stand-up on the hit US late-night talk show Conan (TBS). He is also the co-host of hit podcast Laughable with Jayde Adams and Red Richardson which was recently picked by the Guardian as one of the funniest podcasts to listen to during the pandemic. Garrett’s breakout live show Sunflower became one of the best reviewed and most talked about shows of 2018, both at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and subsequently at London’s Soho Theatre. The show saw packed houses for both runs and regularly added shows to cope with demand. The show was Time Out London’s No.1 Comedy Pick for February 2019, and saw Garrett receive a nomination for ‘Breakthrough Act’ at the 2019 Chortle Awards. Garrett’s follow up show Smile surpassed Sunflower, once again selling out its run and adding extra shows. He is currently working on a new sitcom which previously recorded a pilot for Audible produced by Hat Trick Productions and starring Jack Dee and Meera Syal.
