Copy event details

After decades of procrastination, TV comedy writer Steve Parry, (Gladiators, 8 Out Of 10 Cats, Love Island & many more…) turns his back on the glitzy world of mainstream television and unleashes his inner alternative comedy legend.

Expect a riotous and radical celebration of professional amateurism - stand up, stories and songs of sedition.

“This is alternative comedy as it was before it became commercialised… honest, playful and from the heart…what grassroots comedy should be all about”. – Chortle

“ …a tsunami of comedic energy…produces his own distinctive brand of stand-up”. – Fringe Review

Reviews for previous Hastings Comedy Festival 2025 events

GARRY P reviewed Simon Brodkin: Work in progress show which happened on 7:00pm on Sun 19th Jun 2022.

Billed as a "work in progress", Simon had a good first 20 minutes and a very mediocre final 40! Arriving an hour late didn't help his cause. Needs a lot of work pre-Edinburgh.

Gail M reviewed Sasha Ellen which happened on 2:00pm on Sun 19th Jun 2022.

Unfortunately, Sasha was held up by trains and couldn't make it. But we enjoyed the others who filled in at the last minute. Gorgeous venue. Lovely organisers. Bar well stocked

Ray N reviewed Alasdair Beckett–King which happened on 7:30pm on Fri 17th Jun 2022.

an excellent work in progress gig, Alasdair was very good explained the process and tried out his new material and it all went well, a bigger audience would have been better, but it is a small venue, but it was an intimate jig and it all went very well
