Our Brilliant Line Up :

Patrick Monahan
Much loved, energetic, charming Irish/Iranian Geordie and multi award winning comedy circuit living legend. As seen on BBC One’s The One Show, Loose Women (ITV), Asian Network (BBC)
"Twinkle-toed, mischievous, sharp break dancing moves. Monahan raised the roof" - The Sun
"Instantly loveable, wonderfully unique" - Metro
‘There isn't a comic quite like him and his hugs alone are worth the price of admission’ ***** TheNewCurrent.co.uk

James Dowdeswell
Local lad and beer connoisseur, James performed at the Rivoli ballroom last November to great acclaim, and will keep you entertained with comic tales. Appeared on Russell Howard’s Good News (BBC), Celebrity Deal Or No Deal with Jimmy Carr (C4), Ricky Gervais’ Extras, The World Stands Up ( Paramount Comedy) “James Dowdeswell is a real master of the comedian’s craft.” Chortle.co.uk
James has published a CAMRA recommended book about his love for pubs "The Pub Manifesto: A Comedian stands up for pubs"

Roman Harris
Super talented & loved by audiences everywhere Roman has developed a reputation for being a 'Nice Guy' & most importantly a "Funny Guy" NATYS runner up 2022 , British Comedian of the Year Semi Finalist , Finalist ‘Get up, Stand up’ competition.
Roman performed at Indigo 02 as part of Wahala Comedy Clash : Caribbean Vs Africa 2023
“Roman Harris delivers observational, quirky and sometimes edgy comedic tales of life as he sees it”


Currer Ball
With hands-on giddiness, this Glaswegian stand-up now based in South London gives a whole new meaning to physical comedy – while delivering one exquisite gag after another.  ‘Quite weird, very funny’ – Guardian ‘Inventive one-liners’ -Viv Kroskop


Jo Phaure
West End New Old Act of the Year Semi-Finalist 2023. Finalist 2024. Forgot to apply in 2025. Darkly sardonic, self-deprecating humour. Jo is a medium sized success in a very small town. 

MC Siôn James
"Utterly charming ... Lovable giant' Time Out London

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
