THAT PAIR
The comedy stylings of Kat Bond and Lorna Shaw make up this double-act whose silly solo shows have been adored by critics and audiences alike. Their 2013 show Never Liked Her Anyway received raved reviews and had audiences dancing in the aisles both at the Edinburgh Fringe and subsequently selling out the Soho Theatre.
These multi-skilled performers do everything from puppeteering to ballroom dancing to appearing on BBC Radio 4’s Sketchorama.

Phil Jerrod
Phil Jerrod began his stand-up career underneath an Angus Steakhouse in 2012. Since then he has failed his PhD, walked out of his job in publishing and been entertaining audiences up and down the country with his elegant rants on the often unfathomable problems of modern life.
His innovative stream-of-consciousness style, inspired by a harsh upbringing in the cruel and unforgiving conditions of middle-class rural Warwickshire, has seen him perform in clubs, arts centres and theatres all across the UK and helped build his reputation as having grown one of the largest beards in stand-up comedy.
He has recently been nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year Award 2014, and in 2013 was a semi-finalist in So You Think You’re Funny New Act of the Year Competition and a quarter finalist in the Amused Moose Laugh Off.
