We Love Comedy last Thursday

We believe in bringing brilliant comedy to brilliant places and they don't get much more brilliant than Ian Cognito and guests at the Balham Bowls Club.

Headline Act/S: Ian Cognito, Lou Sanders, Javier Jarquin And Sofie Hagen.

IAN COGNITO
All comedians should make you laugh, the very best will make you laugh non-stop from start to finish, a few of these will leave you with higher things to ponder but only Cogs does all the above and makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.

“Changed the face of this circuit single handedly. He was rallying against political correctness before it even had a name. I also love it when he pisses in my mouth.” Brendan Burns

“He’s the reason I am in this business.” Boothby Graffoe

“First time I saw Cognito I was blown away. I was blown away the second time too. Third time I thought I could do that.” Reginald D Hunter

JAVIER JARQUIN

Javier won the the Press Critics Choice Award ('Best National Artist') at the World Buskers Festival 2012 he also won 'Best Show Wellington' at The New Zealand International Comedy Festival 2010

“Jarquin is seriously talented when it comes to working a crowd” - The Stage

LOU SANDERS

Named as one of the top comic’s to watch out for in The Sun, TimeOut, London is Funny, Fest Magazine and Dave TV. We think she is one of the most exciting acts around. You never quite know what's going to happen, but once you're on board, she won't let up.

“From the crazy off-beat surrealism of Lou Sanders, it seems like something new is happening in comedy." – The Independent

SOFIE HAGEN

Winner of the 2013 Laughing Horse Competition without bringing loads of friends, finalist in many others, Sofie is a deliciously dark Danish comedian and we can't wait to have her on.

“Hagen’s act sharply pokes fun at British words and phrases and she’s not afraid switch to bleaker, more contentious subject matter.”

And your host for the evening is Sean Brightman
