‘Slyly cheeky, Very engaging, A fully formed comedian, Well liked by audiences! ‘———Chortle.com
MOSS (James Watkins)
James Watkins (Moss) is a queer neurodivergent clown already crafting a unique and charismatic voice in comedy as a sort of self-aware, self-depreciating forest goblin. He's just as likely to joke about ketchup packets as he is about the socio-economic state of the world. You might not understand what he's talking about, but I can guarantee it will make you laugh.
'Moss' energy is pure joy and it’s impossible not to remember him after a set'
'Polished madness'
'Inventive, witty and loveable way of delivering a set' - Live next to the Apollo
Leah Davis
Since kicking off her comedy career in 2022 Leah has reached the finals for the iconic Funny Women competition, Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian and BBC New Comedy Awards semi finals. She has smashed some of London’s most lethal gong shows including Beat The Blackout, Ding Dong Gong and was named a ‘Face of Comedy’ for 2023.
Jacob Hatton
Jacob Hatton is a south London stand-up and writer with a penchant for joke writing to back his sharp observations and flights of fancy. He was a finalist at the Hastings Fringe Best Newcomer in 2022, host of AAA Stand Up at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2023 where he was wrote one of the Daily Telegraph's Best Jokes of the Fringe in 2023.
"Proper Gags. Hatton's a strong comedy technician" - Chortle.
