And the line‑up is an absolute treat for comedy fans:

Joe Wilkinson — the king of beautifully left-field, deadpan humour.

Angela Barnes —brilliantly self‑aware, warm and consistently hilarious.

Dinesh Nathan– award-winning, razor‑sharp observer with perfect timing

James Ellis —  effortless ability to turn everyday moments into huge laughs with killer timing.

Hosted by Rich Wilson – he commands the night with the authority of a man who’s seen every kind of crowd and made all of them laugh. He keeps the chaos in check and the energy sky‑high.

It’s going to be a brilliant night of comedy, all while helping change lives in Brighton & Hove.

If you’re a fan of smart, original stand‑up, this is one you don’t want to miss.
