"A brilliantly performed, well-structured & wonderfully unique set." fringebiscuit "A must-see full of heart, passion & laughs" Broadway Baby
Madeleine Brettingham
After years of writing behind the scenes, she’s recently become one to watch on the stand-up circuit, scooping a string of competition wins including winning the prestigious So You Think You’re Funny 2025 and taking silver in Funny Women, a unique double. Praised for her “distinctive worldview” (Chortle), “tight and gag-packed” writing (Bruce Dessau), and “knack for blending offbeat observations with pacey, unexpected punchlines” (The List).
Danny Field
After growing up hearing impaired on a council estate and being diagnosed with testicular cancer whilst on a gap year in Australia, Dannyoffers a ballsy take on life - the only way he knows how. His quick witted punchlines and side-splitting stories give you a glimpse into the unlucky side of life.
Jodi Wheeler
Hailing from Saaf East London , Jodi Wheeler shares honest, unfiltered takes on dating, ageing and awkward life moments
Tony Ukulele
A legend of the South London live music scene, the much adored and uber talented Tony brings some joy and silly singalong songs to New Cross*no prizes for guessing his instrument of choice.
*Secret Special Guest who cannot be named
*As seen on various television & radio shows. You don't wanna miss this Celebrity comic whose name cannot be publicised. It may be a huge star or a familiar TV name who is road-testing new material.

Hats off to them all, they’re so used to a live atmosphere when performing but handled the digital delivery excellently, technology has a tendency to let people down occasionally but this was a great night! Thank you all

We had a fabulous night well done to DRT for organising the event, we live in Yorkshire and would have been babysitting the grandchildren who are in deeside so daughter and son In law could attend the event had it gone ahead as planned so we would have missed it but we were able to attend the online event, there were a few hiccups to start with but were soon cleared up. We were muted the whole time as we're the majority but there were one or two laughing out loud which made it impossible to hear the punch line sometimes but overall it was a great night
