PAUL F TAYLOR - The award winning Paul F Taylor is a one of the UK's most exciting and distinctive stand-up performers. His unique brand of humour fuses quirky offbeat one liners with surreal observational flights of fancy to fantastical effect. Nominated as NATY New Act Of The Year for 2013 and GQ Magazine's comedian of the week, Paul's persona of a lost bewildered fool sits perfectly alongside his gleefully madcap ideas. He has also achieved notable success as a screen writer and performer. His comedy short film Battlecock! that he co-wrote and starred in has made it into the official selection at the BFI London Film Festival 2013. Paul also co-wrote and performed in Claudia Winkelman’s Radio 2 Show.
EDDY BRIMSON - To say East Ender Eddy Brimson has a colourful past is something of an understatement. A self-confessed former football hooligan before turning his hands to better use as a writer and comedian, Eddy has written a host of amusing anecdotal books, penned and hosted a top three selling video ‘Teargas and Tantrums’, and is also a regular “talking head’ for numerous radio and TV shows on subjects as diverse as football, dodgy builders and sexy baldness. As an actor, he has appeared on such diverse programmes as Absolutely Fabulous, The Thin Blue Line, Casualty, The Bill and EastEnders, where he played, you’ve guessed it, an East End villain, who torched Frank’s car lot.
Eddy was also a presenter on the Bravo TV show The Basement covering topics as varied as the British Lawn Mower Grand Prix to a live hair transplant. Eddy is a prolific writer, having penned seven best-selling books. With sales topping 160,000, Eddy has built himself a cult following among British and European football fans.
SHARIFA BUTTERFLY - Sharifa is a talented comedian known for her unique sense of humour and her unusually entertaining life story. With a knack for storytelling and a natural ability to connect with audiences, Sharifa has become one to watch.
Born and raised in London, Sharifa has spent her entire adult life working professionally as a Hip Hop dancer. Falling into the societal pressures to get an “adult job” Sharifa is transitioning into a more grown up and sensible career, something to make the grandparents proud – stand up comedy.
Sharifa began her comedy journey by performing at an open mic night at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022. Between now and then Sharifa has gone on to win a number of Gong shows and competitions at some of the UK’s most established comedy venues: a few of her wins in 2023 include, King Gong winner at The Comedy Store, Top Secret Gong winner at Top Secret comedy club, and Vauxhall Ding Dong Gong winner at Big Belly Comedy club Christmas 2022.
MC RUSSELL ARATHOON - Russell is a likeable act who the audience instantly warm to. With his sharp and cheeky material Russell is a perfect act for any live audience. A solid MC he is fast building up a reputation as a very safe pair of hands.
In 2018 Russell made his Edinburgh Fringe debut with his critically acclaimed show ‘The Curious Incidents Of The Gay In The Night Time’. Since then Russell has gone on to perform at festivals all over the country including Leicester, Nottingham, Manchester & Brighton. He even appeared on the Glee Cardiff Pride Stage alongside Robert White in 2019.
