Line Up :

Russell Hicks  (Work in Progress/Preview )
Russell Hicks, who you've seen on BBC, Channel 4,  Amazon Prime, or from his viral Dear Diary videos on social media, or in Edgar Wright's new film The Running Man is building a new show. One of the most exciting comics to come out of America , now based in the UK , branded one of the 'Top Six Comics to Watch' by LA's Stand Up Talk Magazine. Russell Hicks returns brings his own unique brand of improvised standup comedy Californian style to New Cross!
Come join the cult of Russell Hicks followers ( Over 270k & 5.9m likes on TikTok!). Anyone who has seen Russell Hicks knows that it is never the same show twice. Taking a different approach than most comedians, Russell Hicks weaves improvisation with stream of conscious delivery that has moved many audience members to return for two nights in a row. Nothing in this biography can do his act justice other than to say, you just have to see him live'."Indisputably talented, there’s no comic quite like Russell Hicks.   'Russell Hicks is amazing" (Comedy Palace)

Caroline C reviewed Basingstoke Round Table Comedy Charity Fundraiser Gig for Duchenne UK @ Basingstoke APOLLO Hampshire RG24 9NU which happened on 8:00pm on Fri 10th Oct 2025.

The best comedy nights make you forget everything - where you are, the time, your worries. This was one of those nights. I even forgot I was in a beige function room of a slightly dreary corporate hotel. Highlights were the compere Pat and the extraordinary President Obunjo - I was in convulsions. In a good way. Well done The Jokepit! More of the same please
