Enjoy some of the best comedy and entertainment out there from the comfort of your very favourite armchair. Our comics will be streaming from their homes all over the UK.

Please note you will only be able to buy a ticket until 5pm on the day of the performance.

The money we raise will be split between performers and the Trussell Trust. When your livelihood disappears we don’t want to be the guys asking comedians to work for free.

You can purchase a link to the live stream or alternatively join our ‘front row’ seats where the performers will be able to see and interact with you (make sure you have a webcam and microphone).

The comedy will be hosted by Kiri Pritchard Mclean and the comedians performing will be:
Russell Kane
Angela Barnes
Daliso Chaponda

There will also be live music from Irwin Sparkes.
