Michael Odewale
BAFTA winning Writer / Performer, Michael Odewale has fast gained recognition for his distinctive comic style.
A fresh and unfiltered voice known for delivering sharp and beautifully executed content, his debut show #BlackBearsMatter won Best Show at both the 2019 Leicester Comedy Festivals and achieved critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe 2019, earning him a nomination for Best Newcomer in the Dave Edinburgh Comedy Awards.
In 2022 he released his first stand up special Michael Odewale: Live at Soho Theatre for Amazon Prime and has since gone on to work on a host of shows including Dreaming Whilst Black (BBC), Cunk on Earth (BBC), Death to 2022 (Netflix) and Ben Elton’s Friday Night Live (C4).
His impressive performance credits include Live at The Apollo (BBC), Friday Night Live (C4) and Live from The Moth Club (Dave).
Grace Mulvey
Grace Mulvey is an Irish stand-up comedian and improvisor. Performing the Harold weekly with Mr. Me Cocos at MOB theatre, Grace is also the creator of the comedy podcast Fad Camp. A finalist in the Vodafone Irish Comedian of the Year 2017 and highlighted in Funny Women’s Ones to Watch 2019, Grace continues to make a name for herself as the winner of the inaugural BBC Galton & Simpson Bursary for Comedy Writing 2020.
Sahib Singh
After serving 5 years in the JROTC, Sahib Singh has not only proven himself on the battlegrounds, but also on the stage. The rising star from the Baltimore/D.C. stand-up scene has performed at clubs and colleges across the country, and in 2019, he won the Magooby’s New Comedian of the Year competition. His original videos have earned him a strong following on social media, and in 2021 he worked as a writer and performer for Comedy Central. His work has been featured on the CBS Comedy Showcase and the digital series AS SEEN ON ADULT SWIM.
Luke Honnoraty
Luke’s comedy career began with a bang when he won Southwest New Act of the Year in 2010 – on his 3rd ever gig!
The North Devon Stand Up is a confident, engaging performer whose skilled story telling is sure to captivate any crowd and which has ensured he continues to be the main stage MC for Oceanfest and the MC for the comedy stage at Boardmasters Festival.
Luke’s observational comedy which focuses on parenting and relationships, is always delivered with a cheeky but charismatic style, and made him Katherine Ryan’s choice of tour support for her UK tour. He then went on to support Joel Dommet’s tour in 2017 and and Lloyd Griffith on this UK tour 2017, 2018 and 2019.
A truly natural and gifted comedian and Presenter of the Comedy Special for BBC Radio Devon, Luke makes you feel most comfortable talking about the most uncomfortable subjects; the way in which he communicates such topics whilst making you fall further in love with his boyish charm is all part of the Honnoraty experience.
