and Cameron Sinclair Harris
Cameron Sinclair Harris (they/she) is a queer, working-class
performer/writer/comedian/theatre-maker/full time idiot from Nottingham,
currently based and causing havoc in South London. A graduate of the Soho
Theatre's Comedy Labs Plus development programme, they adore whimsy,
silliness and chaotic serenity, creating universes out of shoe-string budgets
and using outlandish set-pieces to comment on intimate subject matter. They
are currently working on their debut solo show PLANETS!!!, a cosmic character
comedy odyssey in which they play all eight planets in the solar system. For
fans of existential cabaret, cosmic chicanery, tinfoil, funny little robots
and breathing.
A unique viewpoint, good stage presence, a touch of surrealism and a bit of
panache- Notts Comedy Review
Im not saying that trans people are inherently the funniest people, but
Cameron is certainly good evidence to support that theory.- Blizzard

Occasionally funny- The Reviews Hub
with host Jonny Collins
Jonny Collins is an aggressively inclusive Non-Binary comedian, Jonny pulls
no punches yet makes everyone feel welcome and represented in their thought
provoking, and well constructed deconstructions of gender, sexuality and
politics. With radical leftist ideals and a fast and furious delivery style,
Jonny Collins is a favourite of socialists, anarchists, feminists (of the
trans inclusive variety), and queer activists alike.
Jonny is a force of nature on stage. A whirlwind of hilarity with a unique
viewpoint, they energy and passion personified. XS Malarkey
"Jonny Collins is deceptively rapid-fire, with a gag rate that would shame
most one-line merchants. They can bring a simmer to a boil with ease, and
make a huge mess of your kitchen." James Ross (Quantum Leopard)
As always, this show is free to book, with a pay-what-you-want option on the door by either cash or card.
