All of you who have managed to snap up a ticket for MET Comedy on Saturday night are in for a treat! Here’s the suggested line up:
Stuart Goldsmith
Winner: "Spirit of the Festival Award", New Zealand International Comedy Festival, 2013
Winner: Malcolm Hardee "Cunning Stunt" Award, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, 2012
Stuart is internationally recognised for original, striking stand-up comedy; his last three solo shows making him an "expert standup" (Sunday Times), and a "consistent fringe must-see" (Broadway Baby). TV warm-up credits include 'Miranda', 'Coming Of Age', 'Wall of Fame', 'The Stephen K Amos Show' and many more.
Tim Clark
'An unsung hero of stand-up comedy - the current master of this underrated art' The Guardian
Comedian, writer and actor Tim Clark is one of the brightest lights on the national comedy scene and a familiar face on television. His regular appearances at live venues throughout the country and especially at The Comedy Store and Jongleurs keep his wit sharp and his material fresh. His striking looks, quick wit and affable nature has made sure that Tim makes an instant impact on his many TV
and radio appearances.
Tim has written three critically acclaimed shows at the Edinburgh festival. The second of these 'Talking to Ted' subsequently appeared on BBC Radio 4 in 2006 starring Les Dennis.
He was co-writer (with Barry Cryer) on the BBC's 'Stand-up Show'. He has also written material for many well-known personalities including; Jonathon Ross, Phill Jupitus and Mark Lamarr.
The Raymond and Mr Timpkins Revue
“Absolutely hilarious” - VIZ
An uncle/nephew combo, not jazz and not pop but comedy. It’s intended to entertain and boy does it do just that.
Musical puns, cheeky japes and slick sandal-based choreography abound to a backing track of increasing intensity, transporting even the meekest of reluctant comedy-goers to quivering, giggling seat-wetters.
With TV interest and a radio murder mystery simmering nicely on the back burner, Raymond and his sadistic though kindly uncle Mr ‘it’s all got to do with respect my boy’ Timpkins, still find time to jet about the globe, entertaining the troops of her Majesty as they go.
“A mad, anarchic triumph of stupidity over style. Not to be missed” – The Guardian Tickets for Saturday’s show are sold-out, but you can book ahead for other MET Comedy shows here. Please note the line up is subject to change and MET Comedy is recommended for ages 16+ only.
