Admission: £12 (includes comedy and dinner)

Nick Wilty (Headliner)

Nick is known as the "Globetrotting Comedian" for good reason. He has performed on every continent except Antarctica (although he did a show in Tierra Del Fuego!), and has done shows in all major Festivals, including Edinburgh (6 times), Glastonbury (5 times), Auckland (twice), Wellington, Melbourne, Adelaide, Montreal (Just For Laughs), Vancouver, Edmonton, San Francisco, New York, Amsterdam, Cape Town & Hong Kong.

Nick has won several awards, including the Polo Mint Comedy Award, voted by fellow comedians and club owners in England, and Best International Act in San Francisco.

"Just three adjectives to describe Wilty - brilliant, brilliant and brilliant." Chortle

"Unmissable" Time Out

"Wilty is cack funny, his routine is a fluffy kitten that bites like a lion" BEAT, MELBOURNE

"The hit of the Festival" DB MAG, ADELAIDE

"This is possibly one of the best shows you'll see as part of this year's Comedy Festival" & "Warped observations with an edge" INPRESS, MELBOURNE

"One of the top five acts currently wowing them in New York." THE NEW YORKER

"It may be booked out, but try to beg a ticket because this has to be the funniest show at the Comedy Festival. We loved this English comic so much we were sure the next (of the trilogy) would be mud on our shoes." HERALD SUN, MELBOURNE. Rating 27 stars (out of 5)

Phil Butler (Opening Act)

Phil Butler has been performing for over 15 years and has enjoyed a career which seems to get better all the time. He started as a comedy magician but soon realised that being a comic is his true vocation. His boundless confidence and razor sharp wit will quickly endear him to any audience beit a comedy club, corporate or family crowd. His fast moving act has taken him all over the world, from cruising in the Caribbean and the Med, to entertaining the Armed Forces stationed everywhere from Northern Ireland and the Falklands to Bosnia and Croatia.

More recently, Phil has found himself in Europe and the Far East as part of the ever-growing comedy circuit where he has become a firm favourite in the UK clubs including Jongleurs and the Comedy Store

"Phil Butler's got it all … unique, original and hilarious" (The Stage and Television Today)

"Without doubt, one of the most exciting and original finds in comedy in recent years" (The Guardian)

Electric Forecast (MC)

Electric Forecast (Dan Wright & Steve Marsh) is an exciting and enriching new style of double act - a unique coupling of upbeat physical and observational comedy with slick synchronized interactions. Dan Wright and Stephen Marsh burst onto the comedy scene in 2001 and quickly made a name for themselves as a young, slick and original duo

Such is their chemistry, that it was only a matter of time before TV spotted their potential. As presenters they've just finished a 6 month stint at Nuts TV, presenting 2 hours of live TV, 2 nights a week. Last year (2007) they presented Big Brother's Big Mouth (E4), Crash Test Dummies (Sky 1 , 20 x 30 min series) and Celebrities Uncensored (FIVE , 4 x 60 min series). Dan also presented (on his own ) ’F... Off I’m Ginger’ - a documentary for BBC 3.

As actors, they've recently filmed a sitcom pilot with Jones The Film (which they co-wrote) and appeared in Kingdom (ITV1) playing brothers running rival burger vans. Steve has a role in the new Ken Loach movie (playing the lead bad guy) and they're also developing sitcoms with Objective Productions and RDF Television.

"The first thing you notice is how striking a partnership this is... a high degree of comedy skill...Outstanding comperes." Funny.co.uk

"Very original, very funny, extremely entertaining." City life magazine
