Funhouse Comedy Club - Comedy Night in Oakham October 2024

Funhouse Comedy Club returns to the Grainstore Brewery, Oakham on Thursday October 31st for a great night of laughter.

Topping the bill is the acerbic 'Mancunian' comedian and writer Alex Boardman, known for his unique brand of 'flattery and abuse', which is done with a lack of malice and a big sense of fun. His improvised witticisms, loved-up reminisces and tall tales can lead anywhere on any given night.

Opening the night will be Angela Barnes, who has appeared on TV's 'Live at The Apollo,' 'Russell Howard's Good News' and 'Mock the Week', as well as a number of Radio shows, including her own series on Radio 4 last year 'You Can't Take It With You'. With her confident sharp delivery and skilful, hard-hitting lines she leaves the crowd laughing all the way home.

Also appearing is Shazia Mirza, an international award-winning comedian and columnist for the Guardian Weekend magazine who has also guested on 'Have I Got News For You?' From Birmingham, she was previously a science teacher with one of her former pupils being the rapper Dizzee Rascal. Star of radio and TV she has appeared on 'Last Comic Standing', 'Richard and Judy' and 'The Wright Stuff'. Shazia's distinctive act combines a deadpan delivery with observation on her world; her laconic one-liners represent something quite unique in modern comedy.

Compere for the night will be Jon Pearson, with his laid-back storytelling and relatable anecdotes that have people in hysterics.
