Laura Lexx

Amused Moose Comedy Award finalist, Laura Lexx heads up the July line-up. Laura is an actress, comedian and writer who has gigged at comedy clubs and festivals across the UK and Europe as well as providing tour support for Jason Manford and Russell Kane. Laura also performed her critically-acclaimed solo show, 'Tyrannosaurus Lexx', at the 2016 Edinburgh Fringe.

“A joy…roars of laughter” The Independent

“One of the most delightful performers you’re ever likely to see” GQ

Laura is also an experienced warm-up artist having performed for Comic Relief (BBC), Pointless (BBC) and Upstart Crow (BBC). Laura’s credits also include Sam Delaney’s News Thing (RT UK), How Hacks Work (Viasat Explore), The Comedy Club (BBC Radio 4 Extra) and The Jason Manford Show (Absolute Radio).

Nominated for Best Compere at the 2016 and 2017 Chortle Comedy Awards, Laura has also reached the finals of the Paramount Student Comedy Award, Chortle Student Comedy Award and Funny Women competitions.

Patrick Monahan

The notoriously warm and friendly comic Patrick Monahan joins the line-up. Having won Show Me the Funny (ITV), Patrick embarked on not one, but two national tours, at the same time; the first was a result of winning the show, and the second was his own tour 'Hug Me I Feel Good'.

“A force of nature, effortless charm and the mother of all feelgood finales” Mail on Sunday

“Star-In-the-making” Daily Telegraph

Never failing to have the crowd in delightful hysterics, this is an unmissable act who is a must see at LOL Comedy Club.

Fun fact: Patrick holds the world record for “Longest Hug” at a time of 25 hours and 25 minutes set at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2013.

Ola Labib

Ola Labib is bringing her infectious charm, edgy comedy material and wry humour to the line up.

Ola has appeared on Funny Festival Live (BBC), Yesterday, Today & The Day Before (Comedy Central), and The Lateish Show with Mo Gilligan (Channel 4).

“Wonderful material that pulls no punches” Beyond The Joke

With an animated and cheeky personality, you can catch Ola in her weekly online series ‘Would You Rather’ where she makes even the most calm and collected guests sweat... as well as in her Kashta Lab Podcast, which she co-presents with her husband, American rapper, Ramey Dawoud.

Ola’s mission to smash stereotypes and expectations through stand-up which has resulted in her gigging at top venues nationwide - don't miss her in town this summer.

Damion Larkin

Plus: Your MC for the the evening... Damion Larkin!

“Industrious in rotating his material…which is warmly and intelligently told” Chortle

Damion will often improvise his entire set to hilarious effect. There are no genuine comparisons to this man. He is a versatile and creative comedian who always leaves audiences wanting more.
